The Portland Hospital, the only private London hospital entirely dedicated to the
treatment of women and children, is to support national children’s charity Dreams
Come True in 2004 through a variety of fundraising initiatives which will be held
to mark the Hospital’s 21st anniversary.
Judy van den Broek, CEO for the Portland
Hospital, explained how the hospital chose its charity of the year. “The Portland
paediatric unit cares for babies, toddlers and children up to the age of 16 years
suffering a wide spectrum of common illnesses and also the more unusual conditions,
and so, when looking for a charity to support in our 21st anniversary year, there
seemed to be a natural link between the Hospital and Dreams Come True.”

Fundraising events in the year will include a sponsored pram push, Hospital Open
Day and Gala Ball together with a variety of activities undertaken by Portland staff
and consultants.
