Raising money for UCLH Charity

Charity Registration No. 229771

UCLH Charity provides support for patients, staff and medical research at UCL Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The hospitals treat not only local residents, commuters and visitors to the area but also provide highly specialised services for patients referred from all over the UK and from abroad. The Trust has a reputation for innovation and providing patient focussed care, with ambitions to be a world class centre for clinical services, teaching and research. In the past the Charity has provided state of the art medical equipment for UCL Hospitals, invested in health initiatives for staff and funded academic medical research projects in conjunction with University College London. Current projects included a £3m joint venture with UCL Hospitals to develop a pioneering education centre, and the investment of £7m, from past legacies, in biomedical research. We are also developing a UCLH homeless healthcare service, responding to an ‘invisible’ patient group who often lack representation. Your gift is vital, to help us support this essential work into the future.

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I will be trekking from Lukla in Nepal to Everest Base Camp (and hopefully back again!) from 10th April - 3rd May 2009, to participate in research into the effects of altitude and hypoxia (low oxygen levels) on the human body. My own specialty of Anaesthetics and Intensive Care probably stands to benefit most from this research, for a multitude of different patients - from premature babies with under-developed lungs, to elderly people with lung disease, and critically ill patients on High Dependency & Intensive Care units.

I need to raise a minimum of £2000 (in addition to funding the cost of the trip myself) towards this research - no mean feat as I'm sure you can imagine.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Caudwell Xtreme Everest, via University College London Hospitals Charitable Foundation gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!

Thank you, and best wishes,

Katherine.
