— Northern Uganda's Paediatric Centre

Built for Gulu. Open for every child.

Hope Children & Adolescents Hospital combines 24/7 specialist care, continuous professional training, and community health programmes in a single facility — the only one of its kind in northern Uganda.

/ Rooted in Gulu

A hospital grown from this community

Hope Children & Adolescents Hospital was founded in Gulu to address a specific gap: the shortage of dedicated, evidence-based paediatric care for families across northern Uganda. From the outset, it was designed as a centre of excellence — not a referral stopgap.

Every service, every training programme, and every community health initiative is built to last. We invest in local professionals, local knowledge, and the long-term health of northern Uganda's children.

What We Stand For

The child at the centre of every decision.

Mission

Our Principles

To provide comprehensive, evidence-based healthcare services through skilled professionals, continuous education, and community engagement — from infancy through young adulthood.

To be the leading centre of excellence in child and adolescent healthcare in northern Uganda, where every young life receives compassionate, quality, and affordable care.

Evidence-based decisions. No shortcuts in training. Affordability as a clinical commitment, not a policy statement. Local knowledge at the heart of every programme.

Skilled. Present. Accountable.
