The Surrey Hospitals Health & Research Network represents the next evolution of Surrey Hospitals Foundation’s long‑standing investment in research, education, and health innovation.
For more than a decade, the Foundation has worked alongside academic institutions, health partners, and donors to support research and health initiatives and fortify care environments that respond to community needs.
The SH Network amplifies research and health initiatives by strengthening what already exists in Surrey expanding reach, accelerating progress, and increasing impact across hospitals and care sites.
The SH Network aligns partners, priorities, and investment to reduce fragmentation and ensure research, education, and health initiatives are coordinated, complementary, and focused on shared outcomes.
Through targeted funding we prioritise research and health initiatives directing investment where it can be leveraged, shared, and embedded across the network.
By bringing people, ideas, and resources together, the SH Network catalyzes innovation creating momentum that turns opportunity into action and drives lasting change.
As one of Canada’s most diverse and fastest-growing cities, with some of the highest patient volumes across clinical sites in the province, Surrey offers a unique opportunity to direct philanthropic investment toward patient-centred care initiatives that improve outcomes today and advance future care.
The Surrey Hospitals Health & Research Network is guided by an Advisory Council composed of healthcare, academic, philanthropic, and board leaders who support strategic direction, stewardship, and alignment with community priorities.
Details about the Advisory Council and its members will be announced shortly.
The SH Network supports research that improves care and advances understanding in areas that matter to Surrey.
These initiatives may include clinician-led studies focused on patient care, innovation pilots and evaluations, and training and mentorship opportunities for healthcare professionals.
The SH Network supports initiatives that strengthen health and well-being beyond the hospital walls.
This includes equitable and accessible, community-centred initiatives designed to enhance patient experience and reflect the needs and voices of Surrey’s diverse communities.
