Burton upon Trent, England – ProCare Healthcare Services, a dedicated healthcare provider serving Burton upon Trent and the surrounding areas, recently held a promising meeting with Chief Officer Jill Matthews from the Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity. The discussion centered on identifying potential avenues for collaboration that would ultimately benefit patients and enhance healthcare within the local community served by both organizations.
The Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity plays a vital role in supporting the work of the University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust (UHDB), funding vital equipment, research, and patient welfare projects that go above and beyond what NHS funding alone can provide.

They explored how ProCare’s community-focused healthcare services could potentially align with the Charity’s mission to improve patient care and outcomes across the region. Potential areas of discussion included:
- Joint Fundraising Initiatives: Collaborating on events or campaigns to raise funds for specific projects that would benefit patients within the UHDB network and the wider community ProCare serves.
- Community Health Projects: Exploring opportunities to partner on initiatives that promote health and wellbeing within the Burton upon Trent area, potentially leveraging the Charity’s reach and ProCare’s healthcare expertise.
- Volunteer Opportunities: Investigating ways for ProCare staff to support the Charity’s activities through volunteering.
- Awareness Campaigns: Working together to raise awareness for specific health needs or charitable initiatives within the local community.
