Personal Belongings and Valuables

Personal Belongings and Valuables

If you are in the hospital when your relative or friend dies, the nursing staff will return all belongings to you before you leave the hospital. In the event that you are not in the hospital when your friend or relative dies, please contact the ward and arrange a time to collect these.

Personal possessions are kept on the ward for up to a month. After that time, the Trust will dispose of any uncollected belongings. Any cash or valuables are taken by the ward to Cashiers, and you can collect them form the Cashiers Office located via Quad Entrance number 3. Turn right and the office is located on the left-hand side.

The contact number for the Cashiers office is: 0161 720 2161

Any jewellery left on your loved one when they are transferred to the Mortuary can be removed by your funeral director once they are released from the hospital.
