Thanks for taking the time to visit the Spire Hartswood Hospital fundraising JustGiving page.

As you may know each year Spire Healthcare promotes a charity fundraising drive and we are pleased to announce that our charity for 2024 is the Grace O’Malley-Kumar Foundation.

Grace tragically lost her life on the 13th of June 2023, in an attack in Nottingham. She was simply walking home after a night out with her friend, after celebrating end-of-year medical school exams.

Grace O’Malley-Kumar was the loving daughter of Dr Sinead O’Malley and Dr Sanjoy Kumar and a loving sister to James O’Malley-Kumar. Grace was also the niece of Mr Sunil Kumar. There are many of us who have worked with both Dr Sanjoy Kumar and Mr Sunil Kumar for many years and we know how devastating this has been for their family.

The Grace O'Malley-Kumar Foundation has been set up to fund causes that Grace supported, that embodied her values and to further build an enduring legacy to keep her memory alive.

Grace embraced people from all walks and all backgrounds. She never liked to see anyone excluded and would fight the corner for friends who felt excluded and would befriend those she thought were lonely. She was compassionate, kind, caring and gave her time to friends in distress who needed her help in anyway, physically or emotionally. Grace cared enormously for everyone. We all should be more loving and caring towards each other – ‘Let’s be more like Grace’.
