We’re matching £10,000 of donations to Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) in April to help raise funds for the Children’s Cancer Centre.

Throughout April, webuyanycar is matching £10,000 worth of donations to Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity), helping raise funds to build patient bedrooms at Great Ormond Street Hospital’s (GOSH) ’s new world-leading Children’s Cancer Centre currently under construction.
To ramp up fundraising efforts, webuyanycar is also hosting GOSH Week from 22nd-28th April across the business, with activities in 100 of our branches and GOSH cookies and badges available with every donation.
Cancer is the biggest killer of children aged one to 14 in the UK. But a child doesn’t have to die from cancer for it to take their life. It can take away their childhood, their opportunities to learn and even to have children of their own one day.
The hospital already cares for children with the hardest to treat cancers, but the rapidly changing pace of cancer medicine has outstripped existing cancer facilities, and the hospital needs a new home to help deliver breakthrough therapies.
The new Children’s Cancer Centre will be a world-class facility with children at its heart. This includes welcoming patient bedrooms that feel like a home from home, with enough space for children to play, eat, learn and sleep – and get better. And space for their families, too. Imagine the difference that will make for children and their families going through some of their hardest moments. Join us to help build the Children’s Cancer Centre at GOSH and save more lives.
Together, we can build it. Together, we can help beat childhood cancer.
Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) is a renowned children's hospital in London, established in 1852. Specialising in treating complex and rare paediatric conditions, GOSH is a leader in various specialties like cardiology, oncology, and neurology.
The hospital is closely linked with the UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health, emphasising research and innovation. GOSH actively participates in research projects and clinical trials, contributing to advancements in paediatric care. The hospital also plays a vital role in training healthcare professionals.
More than 50% of patients at GOSH are referred from outside London, and 31% of patients are four years old or under.
This extraordinary hospital depends on charitable support, and every day is a chance to make a difference.
Anyone can get involved with fundraising for GOSH. The money raised makes a real difference to all the children and families in their care.
