In 2023 Barts Health Trust celebrates it's 900th anniversary. To recognise this impressive milestone we have launched one of our most important appeals to date, which is to raise funds to build a new dedicated Breast Cancer Centre at St Bartholomews Hospital.
This new centre will bring together surgical services across the five Barts Health hospitals under one roof. Surgery is an important part of the patient journey, and over 80% of breast cancer patients have surgery as part of their treatment. This state-of-the-art facility will bring together surgery and post-surgery care in one place, improving every stage of the patient experience.
This centre will improve outcomes and make Barts a global beacon for breast cancer patients. I believe this project offers new hope to cancer patients in East London and will help thousands of women over the next decade.

All funds raised through this event will support this vital project.
