Great Ormond Street Hospital
Supporting the Children’s hospital
Every day brings new challenges for Great Ormond Street Hospital. Every day, over 600* of the UK’s most seriously ill children arrive at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs.
And every day is a chance for you to make a difference. This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support to give seriously ill children the best chance to fulfil their potential.
Every day, 619 children and young people from across the UK arrive at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). GOSH sees more seriously ill children with rare diseases than any other UK hospital. We have a unique opportunity to help GOSH transform the lives of these children, by funding research in key areas where we know we can make the greatest difference.
Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) and its research partner, the UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health (ICH), are ideally located side by side, which helps drive pioneering discoveries out of the labs and onto the wards. But our impact is by no means limited to London. Working alongside our research partners, GOSH Charity support child health research on a national scale – from Aberdeen to Southampton.

National calls
Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity and its partner charity, Sparks, have a passion and commitment to support paediatric research nationally. Each year we invite researchers across the country to apply for funding for their child health research projects through the National Call. We review these applications and fund the highest quality research most likely to have life-changing benefits to children.
