United Poetry Reading for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity Emergency Appeal · 19 May 2020

We are Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity. We stop at nothing to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. Because we believe no childhood should be lost to illness.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Since the NHS is under such severe strain currently, many children are being transferred from hospitals across London to GOSH, so space in those hospitals can be freed up. GOSH has increased its intensive care capacity to make sure we have room for the UK’s most seriously ill children. The Hospital’s incredible staff are working around the clock, under huge pressure, to guarantee children at GOSH receive the care they need in these most difficult times.

I was inspired to write this poem because of the current situation. We are going through a time where we need Unity the most. We need to work together and help each other, especially the most vulnerable.

My friends in this film are creature people from creature designers, creature makers and creature performers. I have had the pleasure of knowing some of these people since working with them on the Star Wars films and other films.

I'm grateful to my friends who helped raise money for the children and staff at Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Great Ormond Street Hospital means a lot to me and has helped people close to me.
