Thanks to the incredible efforts of our wonderful fundraising community, we can continue our work to support patients, staff and research at UCLH.
Our supporters fundraise for us for different reasons; some have had a positive experience at UCLH and wish to say thank you, others want to remember a loved one. Staff who see the difference we make every day, also often choose to support us.
However you support us, we are delighted you have chosen to support us and look forward to hearing all about it!
How to fundraise for us
There are lots of different ways to raise money for us:
Organise an event - are you a master baker? Try a bake off or a coffee morning. Are you a general knowledge genius? Try a quiz night. Sporty? Charity football matches are always a winner!
