St Mark’s Hospital Foundation

We support cutting-edge research, education and innovation at St Mark’s Hospital and throughout the UK and the world. With nearly 200 years of accumulated experience that has been passed from one generation to the next, St Mark’s Hospital has built up an unrivalled expertise in the treatment and management of bowel disease.

St Mark’s Hospital Foundation helps fund St Mark’s, the UK’s national bowel hospital. The projects we support have driven clinical improvements for patients living with complex bowel diseases, and enhanced disease understanding. We receive no government funding; our work is only possible because of the generosity of voluntary contributors.

Our vision is a future free from the fear of bowel disease.
