Story

We need to raise £1.5million to bring one of the most advanced robotic operating surgical systems in the world to Chelsea and Westminster Hospital - the da-Vinci robotic system.

This would be the first robotic system in Southern England available for operating on babies and children. This amazing machine is manually controlled by the surgeon and allows surgeons’ skills to be applied even more accurately than traditional operating methods. It will mean that the babies and children will have shorter operations, less chance of getting infections, recover more quickly and be able to go home sooner.

Please support this pioneering project which would help babies and children needing surgery throughout London and the South East.
