Aerobatic buses, 175 floors of hospital and robot-assisted surgery are all predictions for the next seventy years of Great Ormond Street Hospital made by the very people who the hospital helps – our patients!

To celebrate the 70th birthday of the NHS this year, we asked patients to share their vision for the next 70 years of GOSH.
