An appeal on behalf of University College Hospital, by Sir Herbert Samuelson, K.B.E., Chairman and Treasurer of the Hospital
This appeal is on behalf of the Centenary Fund of this hospital, which comprises a Main Hospital (414 beds), a Maternity Hospital (85 beds), an Ear and Throat Hospital (41 beds), and a Dental Hospital, and is one of the largest teaching hospitals in London. In commemoration of the hundredth anniversary of its foundation this year, it is appealing for the sum of £100,000 to enlarge its Infant Welfare and Ante-Natal Departments, and to provide pay beds for persons of limited means—all objects of national importance. The Hospital relies for public support on the great services it has rendered to medical education, on its valuable contributions to the knowledge of the medical sciences, and on its work as a charity which has afforded relief to over four million patients during the past century.
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged, and should be addressed to Sir Herbert Samuelson , K.B.E., [address removed]
