The WGJ (Gary) Hampson Fund is administered through the BHRC. The fund was established in 1979 specifically for Orthopaedic Research in the South West.
The fund is overseen by the South West Orthopaedic Club and each year the club awards a research prize and a research travelling prize.
This year (2018) the awards went to:
