The Brompton Fountain is the children’s charity at Royal Brompton and Harefield Hospital. We work closely with the teams within the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), High Dependency Unit (HDU), children’s ward (Rose), the playroom, outpatient departments and hospital school. Our charity provides a wide range of vital resources, services, parent/carer amenities, and accommodation. We also fund medical equipment, facilities improvements and projects outside of the NHS remit.

Many patients have life-limiting conditions and will require frequent admissions and often long stays in hospital for surgery and ongoing treatment for the rest of their lives. Our team have first-hand experience in caring for a child with a serious illness and provides support from the point of diagnosis as well as before, during and after any admission. Our aim is to improve the quality of life and environment for young patients in hospital and at home, making a difference when it’s needed most.
