Albemarle Homes passes £33,000 milestone in support of local NHS charity

Albemarle Homes has marked a significant milestone in its long-standing commitment to local healthcare, donating more than £33,000 to Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals Charity.

When construction began on our flagship Westmoor Grange development in Armthorpe, Albemarle Homes pledged to donate £100 for every home sold. The commitment was later extended to Priory Paddocks in Beckingham, which has now been completed.

The donations have been made to the charity’s Make a Difference Fund, which provides grants to members of staff across Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The fund supports projects that improve patient care, enhance hospital environments and promote staff wellbeing, helping teams turn innovative ideas into reality for the benefit of patients, visitors and colleagues.

Albemarle Homes has also confirmed it will continue supporting the charity as it expands across the borough, with further donations linked to future developments, including Willow Paddocks in Beckingham and the forthcoming Woodlea development in Blyth.

Sarah Dunning, Fundraising Manager at Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals Charity, said: “We are incredibly grateful to Albemarle Homes for its continued generosity and commitment to supporting our charity. Reaching more than £33,000 in donations is a fantastic achievement and will make a real difference through our Make a Difference Fund.

“The fund empowers our staff to introduce projects that directly benefit patients, improve hospital environments and support colleague wellbeing. Partnerships like this enable us to go beyond what NHS funding alone can provide, and we’re delighted that Albemarle Homes has pledged to continue supporting us as it grows.”

Darryl Barker, Managing Director of Albemarle Homes, said: “As a local housebuilder, we believe it’s important to give something back to the communities where we build. From the very beginning of Westmoor Grange, we wanted every home sold to leave a positive legacy, and we’re incredibly proud that this commitment has now resulted in more than £33,000 being donated to such a worthwhile local cause.

“The work carried out by Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals Charity has a direct impact on the experiences of patients, their families and NHS staff across our region. Knowing our donations are helping fund projects that improve care, wellbeing and hospital environments makes this partnership particularly meaningful.”

The latest donation forms part of Albemarle Homes’ wider commitment to investing in the communities where we build, supporting local organisations and initiatives that create a lasting positive impact.
