Philanthropy

We’re funding healthcare and medical research projects that will make a difference to millions of East Londoners, and which could transform how we understand and treat some of the biggest global health challenges.

Working together

We’re honoured to be working with some of the UK’s leading charitable healthcare funders, spanning individual philanthropists, Trusts and Foundations and corporations. These philanthropic relationships enable us to do more: supporting the next generation of clinical research leaders, funding equipment and infrastructure to help drive healthcare innovation, or helping to build facilities needed for world-class care and medical research. 

Philanthropy making a difference

These are just a few examples of what philanthropy has allowed us to do:

  • Research into complex neurological disorders that aim to make dementia and other devastating diseases preventable in the future.
  • Children’s hospital redevelopment in Newham, giving young patients across Barts Health equality of care.
  • Revolutionary equipment such as Cyberknife radiotherapy.
  • New technology for monitoring blood flow to the brain during complex heart surgery.
  • Sensory equipment and educational aids for children with eye cancer.

Putting East London at the forefront of healthcare innovations

With the support of valued donors, we will transform a space at The Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel which treated seriously-ill Covd-19 patients into one where we can design the treatments of the future. The Clinical Research Facility will enable East Londoners to participate in important, early phase clinical trials, and give us much-needed capacity to help develop new and better drugs: for our patients, for Londoners and for the world.
