This festive season, Paddington Central is inviting Londoners to Follow the Rainbow to raise funds for St. Mary’s Hospital, with seven beautifully coloured Christmas tree installations. Launching on 23rd November, the free standing, outdoor structures will be illuminated with LED lights, each one a different colour of the rainbow, and will celebrate a particular theme including hope, peace, inclusive, joy, kindness, love and courage. A striking, brightly lit rainbow wall will also be located at Bishop’s Bridge where visitors can donate to St. Mary’s Hospital via the contactless donation point.

At a time of great uncertainty, the stunning installations will offer a touch of festive cheer, and the opportunity for a perfect photo moment for locals and visitors to Paddington Central.

Visitors will also be able to acknowledge and thank those who have shown them support throughout the year by posting pictures of the installations via social media and tagging them. Those tagged will then be entered into a competition to win a £100 voucher to one of Paddington Central's restaurants including London Shell Co., Pergola & Vagabond.

Located in the heart of Paddington, St Mary’s Hospital is the major acute hospital for north west London as well as a maternity centre with consultant and midwife-led services. The hospital provides care across a wide range of specialties and runs one of four major trauma centres in London in addition to its 24/7 A&E department.

Paddington Central is one of London’s premier destinations for business and leisure, taking pride in and boasting an ever-growing community. Paddington Central is dedicated to the health and wellbeing of its residents, workers and visitors alike, and is proud to be raising money for St. Mary’s Hospital this Christmas.
