The difference we make

Each year around 7,500 patients, carers and relatives stay at our hospital hotel Since we first opened our doors in 2001 as HeartSWell Lodge, over 100,000 people have benefited from this incredible place, often described as a haven by guests experiencing some of the most difficult times in their lives.

Funds raised by HeartSWell have enabled over £350,000 of equipment to be donated to cardiology departments across the south west. This equipment has transformed the way in which cardiology teams work and supported the advancement of care and treatment for cardiac patients.

Since the merger of HeartSWell South West and HeartSWell Lodge to form Hearts Together, the charity has continued to support cardiac patients and we are looking to broaden our reach to encompass the full range of healthcare needs that our Hospital Hotel guests represent and to focus on improving their experience.
