For patients who need specialist surgery for aneurysms, blood clots and diseases of the arteries, it will mean fewer procedures, reduced risk of complications, faster recovery times after surgery, and less time in hospital. It will be a game-changer and help us deliver the kind of modern care that we want to give to our patients.

The NHS is facing significant challenges with waiting times and once the new theatre is up and running, it will free up space in the RD&E’s existing 10 theatres. This will help reduce waiting times for everyone, including cancer patients.

Here is just some of the equipment we're raising the money to buy...

Please support our Super Theatre Appeal so we can ensure thousands of patients can get their operations more quickly:

• Donate directly to the appeal.
• Take part in a fundraising event. From bake sales to running a marathon. No idea is too big or too small.
• Spread the word! Follow us on social media so friends and families can support us too.
• Write a forever thank you by leaving a gift in your will, donating in memory of a loved one or giving in celebration of a special event.
• Encourage your employer and colleagues to get involved as a charity partner.

Every donation, large and small, has the potential to transform lives. Thank you.
