The League of Friends is a registered charity which supports South Petherton Community Hospital. It is committed to funding the provision of equipment and services, as well as supporting innovative research, that otherwise would not be available at the hospital.  The League of Friends is managed by a committee which includes a Chair, Treasurer and Secretary.

The new South Petherton Community Hospital opened in 2011. It is a much valued resource for the community and the regional centre of excellence for stroke rehabilitation.

The hospital houses outpatient clinics, a therapies department, X-ray facilities, and a wheelchair assessment unit which provides customised mobility solutions for patients.

The hospital has 24 inpatient beds with large windows and panoramic views; many have balconies. The beautiful building and dedicated, caring staff create a welcoming atmosphere which uplifts spirits and can only aid recovery.

The League of Friends funded many enhancements to the new building including artwork which enlivens the patient areas, a landscaped garden with delightful views and a mobility rehabilitation area.
