How You Can Help\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Building MowatLabs will cost \u00a31.7 million. We are delighted to have already secured \u00a31,125,000 from philanthropic support. There are numerous ways you can help:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Does your organisation make charitable donations? If so, please provide a contact to whom\u00a0we can send\u00a0a proposal.<\/li>\n
  2. You can donate! Please give either via the MowatLabs’ \u00a0VirginMoney page<\/a>. For larger donations and\u00a0non-UK taxpayers, please contact Laura Shepherd\u00a0<\/a>,\u00a0Senior Major Gift Manager\u00a0at King’s College Trust.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We would be delighted to recognise significant support within the new facility and would present naming recognition for any of the below areas.<\/p>\n

    The Fraser Slorach Learning and Innovation Hub – \u00a3550,000 (fulfilled)<\/h4>\n

    We need to bring together our research leaders in one space to encourage teaching, dissemination and learning within King\u2019s and to have room to accommodate visiting professors, specialists and PhD students. The Learning and Innovation Hub will provide seminar and office space to bring together a critical mass of child health research specialists. The hub will facilitate teaching, learning and the dissemination of research findings into clinical practice. The Hub honours Alex Mowat’s nephew, Fraser Slorach.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Bench Work Station – \u00a3450,000<\/h4>\n

    This state-of-the-art laboratory will be open-plan and outfitted with the latest technology and research equipment. Scientists will work alongside each other on studies to improve understanding about disease origin, disease prevention, management and cure. Basic research performed here will be directly translated into clinical practise on the wards only moments away from the MowatLabs.<\/p>\n

    The Tissue Culture Lab – \u00a3250,000<\/h4>\n

    Tissue culture is vital for most medical research. This lab will include an airflow controlled tissue culture facility to provide a sterile environment which is vital to allow researchers to isolate cells to be used in studies.<\/p>\n

    We also have a number of areas and pieces of equipment for which we are seeking support:<\/p>\n

    \u00a3100,000<\/strong> could sponsor\u00a0a PhD student over four years<\/p>\n

    \u00a3100,000<\/strong> could sponsor a state-of-the-art microscope<\/strong> to equip the new microscope lab<\/p>\n

    \u00a350,000<\/strong> could help buy the latest cell sorter technology<\/strong> to provide quick and accurate analysis of patient data<\/p>\n

    \u00a350,000<\/strong> could help buy a specialist -80 degree liquid nitrogen freezer<\/strong> to store cells and tissue samples<\/p>\n

    \u00a325,000<\/strong> could help us maintain our world-leading paediatric bio bank facility<\/strong> for a year<\/p>\n

    \u00a325,000<\/strong> could sponsor a liver cell encapsulator<\/strong> to prepare live cells for injection into a patient\u2019s abdomen<\/p>\n

    \u00a320,000<\/strong> could sponsor bench space<\/strong> for one of our researchers for a year<\/p>\n

    \u00a310,000<\/strong> could help us invest in a new live cell culture cabinet<\/strong> to equip the new tissue culture lab<\/p>\n

    \u00a35,000<\/strong> could help sponsor an international seminar to share knowledge and expertise<\/strong> with specialists from across the world<\/p>\n

    We are delighted to have already secured \u00a31,125,000 in\u00a0philanthropic support towards the total cost of the MowatLabs<\/strong>. To enable us to move ahead with the construction of the laboratories we continue to seek significant gifts towards our target.<\/p>\n

    With your help we will be a step closer to fully establishing the first dedicated child health research laboratories at King\u2019s and helping to shape the future of paediatric research to benefit children for generations to come.<\/p>\n

    Please contact Laura Shepherd to find out more about how you can help us create this much-needed research facility at King\u2019s College Hospital.<\/p>\n
