Just wanted to say "Thank you" on behalf of the children on the wards of University College Hospital London.


Heal The World for Children were able to take hundreds of presents to the wards on floors 11 and 12 and delight the lovely children who are unfortunate enough to have to spend Christmas in hospital.


The children on the day ward, baby unit, general ward and two cancer wards were treated to a fantastic sing-a-long lead by year 7 and 8 students from Sylvia Young Theatre School, got to meet Santa and every child and their siblings each received bundles of gifts.


Thanks to the incredible generosity of the members of the East Dulwich Forum, Community Links Bromley, Giving Tree World Ltd and the fund-raising efforts of the SYTS students we were also able to leave a cage full of toys to be given to children who are admitted between Christmas day and New Year. You were all credited during the visit. Without you all the event would not have been the success it was.


Thank you very much. I wish you could have all seen their smiles and the tears from the nurses. We were due to leave at 3.15pm but the children pleaded with us to stay far longer.


THANK YOU ALL!! (Photos to follow in the coming days)


It was a wonderful event and mainly thank you goes to all you lovely people!

Thank you Hazel. For the child who received your gifts you were a HUGE part of this. You were the whole reason they got to forget their diagnosis for an afternoon and you gave them the exciting opportunity to cheekily open an armful of Xmas presents Before Christmas Day!


Thank you! Thank you all!

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
