Boosting health funding for Northern Tasmania
As the community arm of the Launceston General Hospital, the Clifford Craig Foundation aims to improve the health of the community through the provision of funding for innovative medical research, education for health professionals, funding of medical equipment and improved patient facilities.
Medical research is a priority focus for the Foundation and thanks to wonderful community support, we are able to boast a cost effective and life-changing medical research program that provides significant health benefits for the people of our region.
Most importantly, your donations are spent here in Northern Tasmania and used to provide our doctors, nurses and other health professionals with medical research opportunities they would find difficult to get at other regional hospitals. This in turn provides the LGH with a competitive edge to attract and retain skilled professionals to live and work in our region.
HEALTH
Everyone benefits from the outcomes of health and medical research, particularly when that research paves the way to better prevention, better treatments, and even cures for conditions once thought incurable.
RESEARCH
Established in 1992, the Clifford Craig Foundation facilitates a high-quality research program at the Launceston General Hospital, focused on the health-related issues that are important to Tasmanians.
HOPE
Our vision enables research to be undertaken by local health care professionals. This philosophy encourages talented medical professionals to work and reside in Northern Tasmania.
