Breakspear Hospital Trust was set up by supporters of Breakspear Medical Group who experienced allergies or environmental illnesses or who had someone close to them helped by the holistic treatment methods that the hospital provides.

Comments from supporters:

"The treatment of environmental illness is about listening and hearing, looking and seeing, and treating the patient as a whole person. It is a relatively new concept of medicine. I prefer to think of it as being at the spearhead rather than on the fringes. Without it I would not be doing all that I do today."

Until I was 3 years old I was always sick. It's not a good feeling being sick. One Christmas I could not laugh or play or even open my presents! I just sat there ill. After that Mum took me to hospital to get some help [and] now that I don't have allergic reactions, I can eat all kinds of foods...

“It was as though clouds had parted; for the first time in 6 years a doctor was telling me that she understood why I was feeling so ill.” Lady Clare Kerr Patron of Breakspear Hospital Trust

Now I can learn karate, go swimming, go to Beavers and even have fun!"
