Great Ormond Street Hospital is one of the worlds most famous children’s hospitals and they house the largest range of paediatric specialists anywhere in the UK. They care for over 150,000 patients each year, who have the most complex, life-threatening or life-limiting conditions. You can help from just £3 a month.
- £3 a month helps to fund special family accommodation
- £5 a month - could buy a special neonatal mask, small and delicate enough to fit a new baby’s face
- £10 per month - could contribute to the building cost for the new Heart and Lung Centre
With a regular donation you can help the hospital to plan ahead with a reliable source of income enabling them to continue to provides the same world class paediatric service, which in turn gives hope to those children suffering from complex and life-threatening conditions. They are totally committed to finding treatments and cures for some of the rarest and most difficult illnesses.
Although the every day running costs of Great Ormond Street Hospital are met by the NHS, the charity organisation needs to raise upwards of £50 million each and every year to fund the purchase of ground breaking specialist equipment, innovative medical research, hospital redevelopment and suitable family accommodation.

About Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH)
GOSH has come a long way from it's humble beginnings when it opened on 14th February 1852, with just 10 beds, 2 wards & 20 staff. Contrast that with the modern day and the 353 beds, 38 wards & 2,700 staff, treating children from throughout the UK and world for a wide range of conditions. GOSH are one of a small handful of truly word-class children’s hospitals, but as the building is over 150 years old many of their patients and their families are treated in conditions which are crowded, uncomfortable, lacking in privacy and falling short of what they deserve. A good example of the need for redevelopment is that the cardiac intensive care offers each patient only one-third of the space recommended. To deliver the best modern care hospital redevelopment is needed.
