URGENT APPEAL: Donate today and help our hospitals fight COVID-19
URGENT APPEAL: Donate today and help our hospitals fight COVID-19
20 March 2020
The COVID-19 Relief Fund will support hospital staff on the front line of our NHS as well as helping the most vulnerable patients cope with sudden and unexpected financial pressures.
You can support our appeal by making a donation today.
Ian Lush, Chief Executive of Imperial Health Charity, said: “The spread of COVID-19 is affecting all of our lives – and while we make sense of this new reality, our NHS is under extreme pressure.
“During this extremely challenging period, we are determined to do everything we can to support our NHS staff.
“With your support, we will provide emergency funds to help hospital staff cope with the extraordinary demands of fighting the virus as well as those vulnerable patients who are suddenly facing significant financial difficulties as a result of their time in hospital.
“Please give whatever you can to help our hospitals fight COVID-19.”
As the dedicated charity for the Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, we will focus our support on the Trust’s five London hospitals – Charing Cross, Hammersmith, Queen Charlotte’s & Chelsea, St Mary’s and the Western Eye.
Recently, we’ve funded major redevelopments, equipment and medical research to help our hospitals. But right now we’re thinking about the people who need us most – our dedicated hospital staff and our most vulnerable patients.
That’s why we’ve set up a special relief fund that will help those who have been affected by the virus in their hour of need.
