Charity hospital for Cuba Street

A charity hospital for Wellington is a step closer to reality after locating a suitable site.

The Wellington Regional Charity Hospital Trust announced in early April that it had secured premises at 275 Cuba Street in Te Aro, a major milestone, after more than five years of work.

“This step confirms the hospital’s physical home and allows progress into the next phase of delivery. The hospital will operate as a day surgery facility, providing free specialist procedures to people who cannot access public services or afford private care, helping reduce barriers to healthcare across the community.”

The charity is set up to operate without government funding and seeks private donations to sustain it.

It will be called the Dorothy Spotswood Charity Hospital, after Wellington philanthropists Dame Dorothy Spotswood and Sir Mark Dunajtschik agreed to fully fund the build and fit-out of the hospital.
