The Chelsea Pensioners' Appeal has embarked on a major development
programme to make the Royal Hospital fit for purpose in the 21st century
and beyond.
The first phase was to build a new infirmary which has now been
completed.
Chelsea Pensioners' live today in 9ft sq. windowless "berths" on the
historic Long Wards built by Sir Christopher Wren 300 years ago. Each
floor houses 36 In-Pensioners whose average age is 84, and who share 4
lavatories and 2 showers.
We are currently raising money to dramatically upgrade their accommodation.
The Royal Hospital Chelsea is not owned by the Government, and we
have to pay for all capital works. We depend on the generosity of
donors.
Thank you for helping us to honour the Nations' Covenant with its
retired soldiers.
