Donnington Hospital is a series of almshouses at Donnington in the English county of Berkshire, run by the Donnington Hospital Trust.

It was established in 1393 by Sir Richard Abberbury the Elder.[1][2] The original site on the Oxford Road is now occupied by almshouses built in 1602. A further complex was added at Abberbury Close in 1938, followed by Groombridge Place in 1993. The Trust also has almshouses in Bucklebury and Bray in Berkshire and Iffley in Oxfordshire.
