Friends of Barts Heritage The Friends of Barts Heritage were originally formed as the Friends of Great Hall and Archive of St. The Friends of the Great Hall and Archive of St.

Bartholomew's Hospital, and their continued aim is the restoration and preservation of all that is valuable in the heritage of Barts. Bartholomew's Hospital was established in order to preserve all that is valuable in the heritage of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, and to ensure the North Wing and its Great Hall become more accessible and usable for educational, cultural and celebratory events, whilst promoting friendship, appreciation and enjoyment for those treasures. The success of The Friends depends on numbers so please sign up! [link coming soon]

________________________________________________________________
Barts Hospital is a remarkable institution with its history dating back to 1123. Longevity alone has led to an outstanding collection of archival material, and continuous usage and adaptation to the preservation of historical architectural gem, notably the church of St. Bartholomew's the Less, and the 18th century James Gibbs hospital buildings with their great works of art. These have all survived as an integral part of a modern hospital providing the highest quality of care with all the latest scientific and medical equipment and technology. Heritage and modern medicine are not always easy bedfellows, and it is no surprise that the provision of healthcare for today's patients is bound to take priority over expenditure and time spent on art and heritage treasures.
