Gifted Supports Major Investment In Act's Project

Gifted has been engaged to support ACT’s ambition of attracting major philanthropic investment in the £350 million project.

For many years, the East of England has felt the absence of a dedicated Children’s Hospital. Since 2005, this has been a key priority for local healthcare providers and after years of negotiation, they have now received the go ahead for a world-class facility at the Addenbrooke’s site in Cambridge.

Thanks to a step-change injection of funds from NHS England, the project is now being defined as a cutting-edge hospital, designed to embrace a radical new approach to caring for the region’s children and adolescents. The facility will combine ground-breaking science and research with a fully integrated approach to treating physical and mental health conditions. By intrinsically linking these two clinical areas, the hospital will be superbly positioned to become a global leader in paediatric care.

An Action Plan to generate major philanthropic investment

Gifted has been engaged to develop a robust Action Plan to support ACT’s ambition of attracting major philanthropic investment in the £350 million project. Amy Stevens, who managed ACT’s successful £3.5 million campaign for the Rosie Hospital said, ‘this is a wonderful opportunity for Gifted to be part of an extraordinary vision for paediatric and young adult care. We couldn’t be more thrilled to be advising ACT on how to secure funding for a Children’s Hospital that will deliver pioneering diagnostic research and exciting new models of care.’
