About us
We are Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity. We stop at nothing to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. For the hundreds of children from all over the UK who are treated by Great Ormond Street Hospital every day, for children with rare or complex diseases everywhere, for this generation and all those to come. Because we believe no childhood should be lost to illness.
Together with supporters and fundraisers like you, we fund groundbreaking research, cutting-edge medical equipment, and the building and refurbishment of child-centred facilities. We fund in-hospital play teams, music therapy, art and entertainment programmes. And family support, like free home-from-home accommodation near the hospital and a multifaith chaplaincy service.
Together, we help Great Ormond Street Hospital go above and beyond for seriously ill children. We enable kinder and better treatments, bringing hope for children with the rarest and most complex illnesses and making hospital a little bit easier and a lot more fun for the thousands of children who are treated here every year. Together, we can give seriously ill children the best chance, and the best childhoods, possible. Be part of it.

Patient, family and staff support
A percentage of your shop could fund support services like in-hospital play specialists to help children process their experiences and prepare for treatment, music therapy, and a spirit-lifting arts and entertainment programme.

Our research
We believe that every child deserves a breakthrough. Whether it’s a new treatment for an incurable disease, a faster way to diagnose a condition, or a way to minimise the side effects of treatment, we will continue to fund research that helps more children thrive into adulthood.
But we can’t do it without you.
