Our vision is to improve health and care for people living with serious long-term or life-limiting conditions. We do this by supporting world-leading translational research and investment in research equipment and facilities. We also support projects to integrate and improve care for people living with physical or mental ill health and help smaller charities providing practical and emotional support to people living with ill health or disability, and to their families and carers.
The Trustees aim to fulfil Sir Jules Thorn’s vision through a range of grant programmes designed to help UK-registered charities achieve objectives consistent with the Trust’s priorities.
