The Neurosurgery team at St George’s Hospital Tooting are raising funds for the John King Brain Tumour Foundation Charity.
On Saturday, June 29, the Neuro team will come together for a fun walk from Putney to Richmond by the river, marking their 4th walk. All the money raised will help the charity to create a new roof garden adjacent to the Neuro ICU unit.
The John King Brain Tumour Foundation has over the last 5 years, tirelessly fundraised to provide vital neurosurgical equipment for both adult and paediatric neurosurgery at St. George’s, which has led to significant improvements in surgical outcomes for patients with brain cancer, brain disorders and brain injury. They also maintain a beautiful roof garden adjacent to the neurosurgical wards.
Their next project is to create a ‘Forest in the Sky’ roof garden adjacent to the Neuro ICU unit at the Atkinson Morley Wing, St George’s Hospital. This Neuro ICU Garden will offer the opportunity to have a restful space for critical care patients, carers and loved ones who are all recovering from the impact of extremely difficult and traumatic circumstances. It promises to have benefits to rehabilitation as patients become re-acquainted with the outside world and use their senses to stimulate the healing process.
Please join us! With your donation, we’re one-step closer to make this roof garden a reality! Visit our Just Giving Page here.
