Appeals

As part of our work to support the Trust, Whittington Health Charity runs a number of fundraising appeals, giving you the chance to support some of the incredible work being delivered by the Trust, and to help invest in the Trust’s ambitious future. 

Below are links to our current appeals – thank you for your support.

Less medical, more magical!

A visit to hospital can be stressful, and it’s even more daunting for children. We want to make our paediatrics department more inviting and child-friendly by introducing colourful interactive murals and play equipment. Please help us bring a little adventure to our children’s ward, and make hospital visits less intimidating for our youngest patients.

Courtyard Garden

Whittington Hospital urgently needs a safe, accessible, and stimulating outdoor space for our most vulnerable patients. With charitable support, we will turn an unsafe, unused courtyard into a tranquil garden with plants, music, covered seating, soft flooring, games and exercise equipment.

Patient and staff spaces in maternity

We know the physical environment plays a huge part in our patients’ wellbeing. This is especially true for women expecting a baby. Sadly, some of the rooms in the hospital are tired and drab and don’t promote relaxation and comfort. We are therefore delighted that House of Grey interior design studio have kindly agreed to help us transform the following three rooms, providing their services free of charge.

  • Counselling room in the early pregnancy unit

  • Staff room on the labour ward

  • Family room in the neonatal intensive care unit.

Michael Palin Centre for Stammering Children

The world-renowned Michael Palin Centre for Stammering is dependent on charitable support to offer help to the 150,000 children in the UK living with a persistent stammer.

Urgent Assistance Fund

When a patient needs help and time is of the essence, the Charity can provide immediate support to relieve suffering or bring joy.
