Our culture and values

At RUHX, we are more than a hospital charity. Since 1999, we have gone further to give every patient the extra extraordinary care they deserve while supporting our staff to do what they do best and furthering innovation within our hospitals. We are out there in our community, collaborating with the people and organisations that drive real change. And we’re making sure that every penny we raise goes towards improving health, happiness, and well-being for everyone in our community.

Our charity values are important to us. They ensure that we are all working towards the same goals, shape our inclusive and diverse team culture, and are in the DNA of all we do.

- Creating comm-unity - We bring people together, build trust, and inspire others with empathy and compassion. We believe everyone matters, and we are more together.

- Positively disruptive - We are brave, bold and ready to shake things up if it helps us make our place healthier and happier for everyone.

- Science with heart—We make real people the center of everything we do and emphasize the human element in every story.

- Exchange (Giving and taking) – We invite others to join the conversation, share their own stories and give back as much as we welcome in.
