About Our Shining Stars

Since 2020, our hospitals have sparkled their way through the festive season by placing star lights on our hospital buildings and for the first time in 2025, we’re excited to be working with a new location, bringing our wonderful stars to the Bawtry highstreet.

Thanks to the generosity of local businesses, schools, community groups and individuals across South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw, we have raised over £80,000 for Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals Charity.

Our Shining Stars helps to bring some much-needed festive cheer to patients, staff, and visitors of our hospitals whilst also helping us recognise our ‘shining stars’ and remembering those who are no longer with us.

Together we have funded a range of projects including a bereavement suite for our emergency department at Doncaster Royal Infirmary, a range of projects to support staff wellbeing, improvements to our ward environments and equipment to help us enhance patient experience such as play equipment for our children’s wards.

These additional extras would not be possible without the support of our community and with your help we can continue to work hard with our Trust to fund innovative and exciting projects that really do make a difference to our patients, their families and our colleagues who care for them.
