Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity

Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity raises
funds to support the hospital’s most urgent needs. As part
of their child and family support programme, the charity
funds accommodation for parents and families so that they
can stay overnight, nearby when their child is receiving
treatment. 

We have donated £300,000 to fund the communal areas at
the charity’s brand new accommodation, which is just a short
walk away from the hospital. The accommodation will provide
a vital lifeline for people like Barry Day and his family. Barry
is a Morrisons Store Manager whose daughter Rosie was
diagnosed with restrictive cardiomyopathy and received
extensive treatment at the hospital.

“I don’t know what we would have done without parent
accommodation whilst Rosie was on intensive care for all
those months. It means a lot to me and my family to know
that the Morrisons Foundation is helping to fund something
so important to us all and it makes me really proud to work
for the store.” – Barry Day, Morrisons Witham Store Manager.
