Fundraisers can log on to a new website to find out exactly how they can help major hospitals in Oxfordshire, thanks to the Oxford Mail.

The Oxford Radcliffe Hospitals Charitable Fund has gone online, with help from website staff at the Oxford Mail.

As well as offering ideas on how people can raise money for the John Radcliffe Hospital, Churchill and Radcliffe Infirmary, and The Horton, Banbury, the site also describes a range of special projects currently under way which need extra funding.

Janet Sprake, fundraising manager, said: "We hope that it's an interesting site for anyone who wants to know how to raise funds or donate money to the hospitals.

"The latest developments are all detailed, as well as some of the history behind the hospitals, and what charitable funds actually do, because that's one of the problems we have -- people don't know much about us.

"It's very exciting for us and we want to thank the Oxford Mail for its help, because without it this wouldn't be happening."
