The Ingham family has a long history of supporting the community, most notably the Ingham Institute for Applied Medical Research.
After witnessing the dedication and professionalism of Liverpool Hospital towards their mother’s health and care, Bob and Jack Ingham offered to help Liverpool Hospital by building a research institute. The vision was to improve the health and wellbeing of people living in Sydney’s southwest and beyond.
On 23 October 2012 the Ingham Institute was opened, creating a world class, state-of-the-art research precinct in the centre of Liverpool. The Ingham family has continued to support the Institute, recognised today as a research leader in the southern hemisphere, with over 400 researchers.
The Ingham Institute demonstrates Bob Ingham’s entrepreneurial mindset and community spirit. Bob Ingham’s philanthropic gifts to the Institute rank him as one of Australia’s most generous supporters of health and medical research. This is just one of many philanthropic initiatives the Ingham family supports.
