What does DCH Charity do?
Dorset County Hospital Charity aims to help fund the important extras... making patient care better by raising funds for the latest technology and equipment, making the staff’s working environment and facilities better, and helping to provide superior training opportunities... essentially making Dorset County Hospital and the service it provides the best it can be.

Why fundraise for Dorset County Hospital?
