Please give a Quid for a Kid
In a final push to raise the £1million needed for a state-of-the-art MRI scanner. It’s to be installed in the new Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital and will help save the lives of sick children from Carlisle toCrewe. But the campaign is still £250,000 short of its target for September 2010.
We are appealing to everyone in the North West to donate just £1 for the hi-tech scanner which will be able to detect cancer in children at a very early stage and give them a better chance of survival. Just a Quid for a Kid.
Five Stars Scanner Appeal Director Charmaine Wilkinson says the scanner will be three times faster than the existing machine, accurately scanning children to spot life-threatening tumours in just 15 minutes.
‘It’ll produce much better results than its predecessor. It’s quieter too, so much less daunting for small children. But we now need the money really urgently,’ says Charmaine.
The present scanner has scanned 27,500 children in 10 years and has saved countless lives. But the new scanner is far more accurate for youngsters.
Please donate a Quid for a Kid. It really will help save children's lives. Thank you for your support.
Donors are asked to sellotape a £1 coin to a piece of paper or card and send to Quid for a Kid, Five Stars Scanner Appeal, 446a Bury New Road, Prestwich, Manchester M25 1AZ or donate online through Justgiving.
