Christmas 2025

This Christmas, NHS Borders Health Charity has been truly delighted to welcome some very special helpers through our doors — Santa and his team of cheerful elves! With their support, and the generosity of our local community, we’ve been able to bring festive joy to children spending time in hospital over the holidays.

Throughout December, local donors have been collecting and gifting an incredible range of presents for our young patients. From sweet treats to cosy clothes and thoughtful toys, we’ve been amazed by the kindness shown.

We would like to extend a huge and heartfelt thank you to the Scottish Public Pensions Agency, The Provincial Grand Lodge of the Scottish, and Blood Bikes Scotland for their exceptionally generous contributions. Your thoughtfulness has made a real difference — and we’re delighted to confirm that you’ve all firmly secured your place on Santa’s nice list this year.

From everyone at NHS Borders Health Charity, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
