The Cause

Great Ormond Street Hospital based in London treats more than 90,000 patients each year, including children from outside the UK - children who are suffering from the rarest, most complex and often life-threatening conditions. They receive the best medical care that money can buy, but the NHS funding cannot meet these ever-rising costs, so charitable donations to the Great Ormond Street Children's Charity are needed (GOSHCC REG CHARITY No:235825). This desperate need for additional donations has been highlighted recently, with the hospital in the headlines because of funding difficulties. Please see WWW.CIVILSWITCHBLADE.COM for links to articles, and information on the top bands playing.

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!!
