Supporting ROH, one of the leading orthopaedic hospitals in the world, means that the research work we fund has a profound impact on ensuring the Trust remains at the forefront of innovation in the treatment of orthopaedic conditions.
Individuals are able to apply for funding to support research that directly supports patients treated at The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Birmingham or with research studies based at The Mr Dubrowsky Laboratory within The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital.
In 2014, former ROH patient, Mr Michael Dubrowsky passed away and left a significant legacy gift to the ROH Charitable Fund through our legacy giving following treatment he received at the Trust for chondrosarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer. This generous gift has enabled ROH to invest in a new state of the art regenerative medicine laboratory – The Dubrowsky Regenerative Medicine Laboratory. The laboratory was officially opened on Tuesday 17 December 2019. Read more about the opening here.

You’ll be investing in better care in the future and ensuring that when people need treatment, they get the very best.
