Julian supports the charities at UCLH and is a patron of the Leukaemia and Lymphoma Unit (LLU) charity which aims to improve the experience for patients having treatment in the unit and those attending
outpatient clinics. Funds are used to purchase amenities, support free complementary therapy for patients and families and where possible provide state of the art equipment for the wards. The Leukaemia & Lymphoma Unit is a world centre of excellence in the treatment and care of patients over the age of 13 with leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma, sickle cell anaemia, thalassaemia and all other haematological disorders. The unit is one of the largest stem cell transplant centres in Europe.

Stars Appeal, Salisbury District Hospital

Julian is a patron of this charity, as is his Green Wing co-star Stephen Mangan, and he has supported a number of events since the charity was launched in 2007 to raise money to fund extra care and equipment over and above that provided by the NHS.

Julian (and Stephen) dropped into the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit on Tues 6th February 2007 to find out about the impact of the Stars Appeal Little Lives Campaign on the hundreds of babies that are treated there.

He has also attended a number of other events including a Dinner for the Stars event, and on 15th May 2009 Julian co-hosted an auction to benefit the Stars Appeal.

You can see photos from the visit in 2007, the Appeal launch and the Dinner For The Stars event in their Galleries here and here.

You can also listen to a radio interview and view more photos on the BBC Wiltshire website, and see a video to promote the appeal, presented by Julian here.
