Notes to editors

[1]  The Trust has decided to extend by one week to ensure there has been a full opportunity to respond, given the General Election.

[2]  There will be a strong overlap in content with previous meetings and the meeting will be of more interest to those who have not attended our event in February.


Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust is the country’s leading centre for treating sick children, with the widest range of specialists under one roof.

With the UCL Institute of Child Health, we are the largest centre for paediatric research outside the US and play a key role in training children’s health specialists for the future.

Our charity needs to raise £50 million every year to help rebuild and refurbish Great Ormond Street Hospital, buy vital equipment and fund pioneering research. With your help we provide world class care to our very ill children and their families.
