Increased funding for research
Because of the lack of funding into bowel disease and the widespread and highly debilitating nature of bowel conditions. The Hospital Saturday Fund were motivated to support research at St Mark’s once more. It is humbling to hear that so many are motivated to help make a difference.
We offer our sincerest thanks to Louise, Ana and the trustees of The Hospital Saturday Fund. Furthermore, with whom we we look forward to maintaining strong ties.
