Co-Matchball Sponsorship | Hendon Hospital & Sporting Inspirations

We are delighted to welcome Hendon Hospital as today’s Co-Matchball Sponsor.

About Hendon Hospital

Hendon Hospital, part of the Circle Health Group, is a renowned private healthcare facility that has been serving the Barnet community since the early 1970s.

Located on Sunny Gardens Road, the hospital has built a strong reputation for providing high-quality medical care to patients, whether they are self-paying, insured, or referred by the NHS.

With a focus on patient well-being, Hendon Hospital offers a comprehensive range of services, including advanced physiotherapy and specialist medical care, all delivered by a team of highly skilled doctors and healthcare professionals.

Over the years, the hospital has become a trusted resource for those seeking both urgent and ongoing treatment, with a commitment to delivering care in a compassionate and professional manner.

One of the key highlights of Hendon Hospital is its state-of-the-art physiotherapy department, which was expanded with the opening of new facilities in 2024. The department is home to cutting-edge equipment, including the AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill, a technology first developed by NASA.

 

 This treadmill uses differential air-pressure technology to reduce stress on injuries and joints, making it particularly beneficial for patients recovering from lower-body injuries. The AlterG® treadmill is one of the first of its kind in the UK, and its introduction marks a significant advancement in the hospital’s rehabilitation offerings.

Hendon Hospital’s mission is to provide exceptional healthcare in a community-focused environment, ensuring that each patient receives personalised attention and treatment tailored to their needs. The hospital’s dedication to both innovation and compassionate care makes it a pillar of health in Barnet.

While Hendon Hospital’s primary focus is on providing excellent medical services to the local community, it also extends its expertise to the team at Barnet FC. These collaborations allow the hospital to support local organisations, further enhancing its role in the community and contributing to the health and well-being of a wider audience.

Whether you need consultation or treatment for a specific condition or use of our physiotherapy and imaging services, Hendon Hospital is here to help you achieve your health goals with the highest level of care and expertise. 

We are also delighted to welcome Sporting Inspirations as our other Matchball Sponsor.

We have received many accolades over the years. Our Chief Executive Officer, John Manitara, recently received a Personal Award from the High Sheriff of Hertfordshire for being the driving force behind the brilliant work and enormous contribution to ‘Sport for Good’ across the County.  Similarly, our Chief Operations Officer, Russell Cairns, was commended for his ‘inspirational’ work with young people in the Houses of Parliament in 2024 when Josh Dean, MP for Hertford and B Stortford stated that ‘I can say with confidence that had it not been for the support and guidance of a youth worker named Russell Cairns I would not be in this chamber today’
