We are proud to support NHS staff working on the front-line of the COVID-19 outbreak, including Whipps Cross, The Royal London, Mile End, Newham and St Bartholomew's Hospitals and the new NHS Nightingale London.
Help us support patients and the NHS heroes working on the front line by donating to our emergency COVID-19 appeal.

We’ve given £80,000 funding for the Barts Health NHS Trust hospitals to purchase hundreds of iPads, to help patients stay in touch with their loved ones digitally via video calls.

Using a 3D printer at the Blizard Institute and £25,000 Barts Charity funding, a collaborative team is producing the protective equipment for those on the front line of COVID-19 at The Royal London Hospital in the Emergency Department, Critical Care Unit and other wards.
Following government advice, staff at Barts Charity will be working remotely for the foreseeable future.
Please rest assured that it's business as usual for us and we’re still very much here for our fundraisers, our grant holders and, of course, all the staff and patients at St Bartholomew’s, The Royal London, Mile End, Newham and Whipps Cross Hospitals.
We have never been prouder to support the dedicated staff at the Barts Health NHS hospitals, who are working on the frontline of the response to the COVID-19 outbreak, and we’ll continue to provide the funding they need to deliver exceptional care to the people of East London.
