The Friends of UCLH was formed in April 2005 as a result of the amalgamation of four separate charitable groups of Friends serving the hospital within the Trust namely:

• Friends of the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Hospital
• The League of Friends of The Middlesex Hospital
• St Peter's Hospital League of Friends
• Friends of University College Hospital

The Friends are a registered charity (no. 266669) whose aim is to help the hospital, its patients and staff by providing facilities and amenities which are not available from the National Health Service. This covers many items which cannot otherwise be afforded. Grant requests are considered at the regular meetings of the Friends' Trustees and recent contributions include:-

• Toys for Outpatients' Department
• New broadcast mixer for Hospital Radio Citybeat
• Counselling services
• Magic shows on the Children's Ward
• Courtesy packs for emergency in-patients
• Infant Massage Instructor for Neonatal Unit
• Items for the New Chapel

The Lymphoma Research Trust is a registered charity (no. 263424) which supports research into the treatment of lymphoma. It makes grants to medical researchers at the Lymphoma Trials Office who organise clinical trials and operate a database with over 18,000 patients on it.

The database contains details of patients´ treatments and annual follow-ups, and provides a valuable record of the outcome of different treatments for lymphomas. The clinical trials assess whether new treatments work better than existing ones, and test different combinations of treatments to see which are most effective. The information gained from these trials improves our knowledge of lymphoma and enables patients to be treated more effectively.
