NHS Big Tea logo

Join the nation this July and host your own NHS Big Tea party to raise funds to support Combined Charity – Combined Healthcare’s Trust charity! You can brew up a storm on 5 July, the birthday of the NHS, or anytime that week. Your fundraising helps to ensure that the experience of Combined Healthcare is the best is can possibly be, for patients, their loved ones, and colleagues alike.

Whether you get together at home, at school, in the office, or in your local community, there are so many ways to raise money at an NHS Big Tea. From asking for donations in return for tea, cake and good company, to hosting a quiz, playing tea related games or running baking competitions. The possibili-teas are endless!

Hosting an NHS Big Tea is a great way to bring communities together around a shared love of the NHS whilst raising money, everyone can get involved and every cuppa makes a difference!

So, grab your teapot, pop the kettle on and let’s turn tea and cake into cash to help support the work of Combined Healthcare.

The NHS Big Tea is owned by NHS Charities Together, to support our NHS charity members in their fundraising.

On Thursday 4 June 2026 Combined Healthcare hosted an Oliver McGowan Training Recruitment Day. The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism is named after Oliver McGowan, whose death shone a light on the need for health and social care staff to have better training.  All colleagues at Combined Healthcare are required to complete the Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism. To help facilitate the sessions, the Trust is looking to employ more experts with lived experience of autism or learning disability, to support this essential training as co-facilitators.
