The Henry Bloom Noble Healthcare Trust has a rich history dating back to 1888. Our story is one of vision, commitment, generosity, and a steadfast dedication to improving healthcare for the people of the Isle of Man.
Founded by the philanthropist Henry Bloom Noble, our Trust has been at the forefront of supporting and advancing healthcare services on the island for over a century.
Henry Bloom Noble was a visionary whose philanthropic efforts laid the foundation for our Trust. His passion for helping others and improving community health, particularly so later in his life after he married Rebecca, led to the establishment of the first hospital on the Isle of Man, Noble’s Hospital.
His legacy of generosity and care continues to inspire our mission and values today.

The Trust was founded by Henry Bloom Noble with the aim of supporting the newly established Noble’s Hospital.

Increasing support for advances in medicine coupled with expansion outside the Hospital with support for community health initiatives, mental health services, and addiction support programs. The Trust has also helped individuals, through other organisations, who have exceptional urgent healthcare needs.
Over the years, the Trust has evolved to meet the changing needs of the healthcare system. While our core mission remains the same, our strategies and areas of focus have expanded.
Today, we fund a wide range of projects, from cutting-edge medical equipment to community health programmes including supporting mental health and those with addiction issues.
The impact of the Henry Bloom Noble Healthcare Trust is far-reaching.
We have played a pivotal role in improving healthcare facilities and supporting healthcare professionals. Our contributions have made a tangible difference in the lives of many residents on the Isle of Man, providing them with access to better healthcare services and resources.
