You can verify Nuffield Health in several ways. First, search the Charity Commission Register at https://register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/ - every charity registered in England and Wales appears here with its registration number, trustees, governing document, and filed accounts. Because this is a charitable company, you can also check its filings on Companies House (https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/). Second, check whether the charity's annual return and accounts are up to date - the Commission flags charities with overdue filings. Third, look for the Fundraising Regulator badge on the charity's website, which signals voluntary compliance with the Code of Fundraising Practice.
Contact Nuffield Health directly for current donation methods. UK charities typically accept online card payments, direct debit, and bank transfer.

Gifts of shares, property, or land to charity are free of Capital Gains Tax and can be deducted from your income for Income Tax purposes. Legacy gifts (in your will) reduce the value of your estate for Inheritance Tax and can lower the IHT rate from 40% to 36% if you leave at least 10% to charity.

From my first consultation to my discharge I was given the utmost care and attention from all the staff.

Excellent swim school! My daughter loves her swimming lessons! They are really fun and the small class size is great.

My daughter loves the swim school. I've recommended to my friends as there's smaller group sizes compared to other swimming groups I've been told about. Those other swim groups may be cheaper, however, due to the size, their child does much less swimming in the session. I'm really impressed with my child's growth in her short time of swimming, I know this is largely due to the group size and dedication of the instructors. The swim instructors are all lovely and the pool (and dressing room) is great. Would highly recommend.

The swimming lessons themselves are fantastic. Both of my children are taught by Sarah and Sharon, and they’ve been brilliant at building their confidence and helping them genuinely enjoy their time in the pool. I’ve seen such a positive difference in both of them, which as a parent is exactly what you hope for.The only downside for me is the viewing area. My two children have lessons half an hour apart, and if I want to watch them swim, you have to stand outside and look through the window. In the summer this isn’t too much of an issue, but during the winter it’s far from ideal — especially when one child has just finished swimming and is cold while you’re still waiting for the other lesson to finish.If some kind of sheltered, heated viewing area was added for the winter months, it would easily be a 5/5 from me. The teaching really is excellent — it’s just the viewing arrangements that let it down slightly.

Used be be good but no swim progress being reported/recored, some of the skills he hasn’t had any progress on in 4 months. Swim teacher does not get in the pool to show the children how to do things and mine is only 4 and struggles to hear and understand. It used to great but since they change management/process it been so poor and attitude from managers isn’t great Updated 22nd feb, arrived for swimming, my son got ready… went out to the pool to be told it’s cancelled. Also received a message yesterday to say lesson on the 8th of March is cancelled due to sickness.

I have returned home from foot surgery at the Tunbridge Wells hospital and am very pleased with the care and compassion shown throughout. My consultant surgeon Mr Shariff has been excellent, and all the staff at the hospital were superb. A particular shout-out to nurse Fatima whose kindness, compassion and humour were most helpful after the operation.

My little boy is on his second lesson and has really enjoyed it so far! Lovely small class size and great instruction and just the right amount of challenge for him.
