Action Medical Research is the leading UK-wide charity saving and changing children’s lives through medical research. Almost everyone has been touched in some way by our ground-breaking work, like the first polio vaccines in the UK, ultrasound in pregnancy and the rubella vaccine. 

After having two premature babies looked after very well in hospital I thought I should give something back. Action for children have pioneered many treatments for sick kids meaning more children going on to life full and happy lives.
