The latest donation takes the total funding from the Denise Coates Foundation to \u00a329m to UHNM’s charitable arm since 2014.<\/p>\n
“This investment will allow more patients across the region to benefit from world-leading surgical care closer to home,” Coates said.<\/p>\n
“Supporting projects that make a lasting difference to local communities remains a core focus of the foundation.”<\/p>\n
