More than 150 walkers took part in ‘Walking West’ on Sunday 28 September, stepping out onto the Thames Path to mark a decade since Chelsea and Westminster Hospital and West Middlesex University Hospital joined forces to become one Trust. The event raised over £27,000 (including Gift Aid) for CW+, our official Trust charity.

The 12.2-mile fundraising walk started at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital and followed the scenic south side of the river to West Middlesex University Hospital. Trust staff and members of the hospital community were cheered on at three aid stations hosted by the Hurlingham Yacht Club, Small Profit Dock Gardens and Brentford Boat Club, before crossing the finish line to a warm welcome at West Mid. The event was kindly supported by Interpath, a financial advisory firm.

You can still donate here. Your support helps CW+ continue to fund projects that enhance patient care, staff wellbeing, and innovation across our hospitals.
