Story

We know self-isolation and social distancing can be very challenging. Many of us will have concerns about what the future holds. But, if you can spare any money - perhaps some of what you'd spend during a normal working week - it will make a great difference to the seriously ill children at GOSH. By donating what you would have spent on small purchases, you'll be able to help the hospital through this crisis and beyond.

You can also get your friends involved by creating your own JustGiving page to contribute to the appeal. This way, you can all contribute as a community and get more people involved. If you've fundraised for us before, you'll know it makes a difference to the seriously ill children at GOSH and is a great way to spread some positivity in an otherwise worrying time.

To get you started, here's an example of how your small acts of kindness will make a huge difference.

A coffee a day - Donate the cost of a coffee a day for a working week - the average total for this would be £12.50. This could fund an hour of specialist cell production. GOSH Charity-funded researchers are using these to help treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
