Action Medical Research is dedicated to building a better, healthier future for everyone.

We played a crucial role in developing the polio vaccine in the UK, ultrasound scanning in pregnancy, hip replacement surgery and more. We are an independent, national charity and rely totally on voluntary support.

Touching Tiny Lives Campaign

Each year in the UK 70,000 newborn babies need special care. Sadly, 50,000 babies are born prematurely. Tragically, more than 25 premature babies die every week because they were born too soon.

Thanks to the generosity and commitment of our supporters so far Touching Tiny Lives has raised over £3 million. This has enabled us to fund over 30 vital projects to help find the answers to life-threatening pregnancy complications, and help sick and vulnerable babies. Find out more

Celebrate Paddington's 50th anniversary

Bring Your Bear

Have fun raising money to support our Touching Tiny Lives Campaign. Schools, nurseries and companies have fun celebrating Paddington's birthday, bring their teddy bear or favourite soft toy into school or work for a day and donate £1 to help sick and vulnerable babies.
