Medicash’s charitable partnerships

Medicash regularly donates to NHS and other health related charitable causes. Over the last three years, Medicash has donated over £500,000 to charity through it’s Charitable Trusts. Below are some of the campaigns that Medicash is actively involved in supporting:

Samaritans

Samaritans and Medicash established a partnership in 2007 when Medicash sponsored the Samaritans Stressed Out Survey. Jeremy Payne, Director of Fundraising & External Relations said: "Through Medicash’s kind support Samaritans has established just how far stress has a damaging impact in today’s workplace. This research has allowed employers across the UK to stand back and revisit how stress is affecting their employees. This will lead to many positive changes. We very much look forward to continuing our partnership with Medicash."

NSPCC Safe Place Appeal

No one can underestimate the importance of the NSPCC’s work across the UK.

When Medicash heard that Liverpool is to become home to a regional NSPCC headquarters, we wanted to support the cause. £25,000 was donated to the NSPCC’s Safe Place Appeal, to assist in the continued protection of Merseyside children.
