Trusts and Foundations
The grants we receive help people at our partner hospitals breather easier, live longer and have more comfortable stays in hospital
Partners in life-changing care
Thanks to the generosity of charitable trusts and foundations, we can support advances in heart and lung healthcare that transform patients’ lives.
Turning grants into breakthroughs
The grants we receive help people at our partner hospitals breather easier, live longer and have more comfortable stays in hospital. Innovative treatments, vital research, specialist equipment and support for patients and staff – none of it would be possible without the trusts and foundations who fund us.
Give hope. Improve outcomes. Save lives
We’re always looking to build new partnerships with trusts and foundations who share our passion for transforming heart and lung care. If that’s you, we’d love to work with you.
How you’re funding makes a difference:
- Faster, safer and more comfortable scans with a new type of gamma camera – the first of its kind in London
- A new genetic sequencer to improve diagnosis for more families
- Life-saving imaging tools for the most complex procedures
- Research into sudden cardiac death in young people
- Programmes that reduce isolation for long-stay patients
- Training and wellbeing programmes for NHS staff
What you can expect from us
We’ll keep you updated on the difference your gift is making, and invite you to see it first-hand with hospital tours and other exclusive events.
Cardiac health and related research are key priorities for Kusuma Trust, whose mission is to support outstanding organisations doing exceptional work—making Royal Brompton Hospital an easy choice.
Kusuma Trust has been a long-term supporter of Royal Brompton & Harefield Hospitals Charity, backing its Covid-19 Emergency Appeal, equipping catheter laboratories with state-of-the-art imaging technology, and aiding in the acquisition of genetic sequencers. We take great pride in championing their remarkable work.
Royal Brompton Hospital’s Nuclear Medicine Department is a centre of excellence, providing diagnostic scans to over 5,000 patients a year of all ages.
A gamma camera captures images showing how organs are working and can spot problems earlier than other types of scans, such as an x-ray. These scans can relieve symptoms, improve quality of life, and even save lives.
The new camera, the first of its kind in London, has so far delivered exceptional quality 3D scans faster, safer and more comfortably for hundreds of patients.
Dr Kshama Wechalekar, Lead Consultant in Nuclear Medicine said: “With this camera, patients are the real winners, getting the best of today’s care. It will also allow us to drive the research and innovation to improve care for tomorrow.”
