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!

    • It happened again tonight. This time a group of kids ( I hate saying that, because it makes them sound less intimidating than they are), threatened to throw a water bomb at me. When I dared them, they started lobbing them. Then they started saying they were going to kill my dog and one of them jumped over the fence of the Japanese Garden and took a running kick at my dog, who got out of the way. He jumped back over the fence, then came back, came within a meter of me and threw a water bomb really hard at me.  I can't be sure it was exactly the same crowd as last time, though I suspect the male ring leader could be.  The police came and were amazing - as was the park warden - and are fairly confident of the identity of one of them and think they may have tried to arrest him before.  There were maybe as many as 15 of them, aged 16-18, all Caucasian, girls and boys (girls being just as aggressive as the boys). The ring leader is a slight man, dark hair / eyes, possibly with facial hair about 5'6", petite, wearing an all-blue tracksuit.  So please be careful when you're in the park around 6.30 / 7pm. The local SNT have been informed.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did!
    • But it was under our electoral system in 2019! This must be part of the right-wing media conspiracy that did for Corbyn....;-) Corbyn was very closely allied to Unite and Len....
