Supporting our local community

 

As the leading private hospital in the Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, Bupa Cromwell Hospital supports organisations that are committed to improving the health and wellbeing of the local community.

 

As part of the Bupa family we are committed to supporting Bupa’s Community Connections.  Bupa launched Community Connections in 2001 to co-ordinate, recognise and support employee volunteering and fundraising within the communities in which their employees live and work. Key areas of focus are health, education and care for older people. 

 

In September 2008, Bupa Cromwell Hospital supported the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning and helped raise over £2,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support.  Our hospital was the first to open a private radiotherapy department and as we continue to specialise in cancer treatment, we were pleased to support this charity.

 

Last month our hospital sponsored an annual event held at the Kensington and Chelsea Town Hall known as Well Being for Life.  The event was run by the charity Sixty Plus, which promotes the well being of people over sixty in the borough.   

 

During the summer 2008, we sponsored the Earls Court Community Festival which took place in Nevern Square.  This organisation aims to bring together the diverse populations of the Earl's Court area and promote a shared sense of belonging in the community.

 

The Bupa Cromwell Hospital welcomes registered charitable groups and organisations to contact us, particularly if their values and goals are to improve the health and wellbeing of local communities.
