Story

Help bring a festive smile for children in your local hospital this Christmas!

This year has been such a challenge for our hospitals and healthcare services and we recognise that the coming festive season is also going to be very different from previous years.

We would love for you to consider fundraising or making a donation to fund Christmas presents for children in hospital over the festive period this year.

You can choose to donate directly to the ward that's closest to your heart - just make a donation to this page and let us know in your message which ward it is for - Wrexham Maelor, Ysbyty Glan Clwyd or Ysbyty Gwynedd.

Each of the wards have their own fundraising pages attached to this campaign, so you can click into those and read a little bit about what each ward is planning, and make a donation directly that way as well.

Christmas will be a little different this year

Because of this, we kindly ask that actual presents are not gifted or donated to ensure we are maintaining our distance and limiting unnecessary visits to continue to protect our NHS staff and patients as much as possible.

NHS staff on our children's wards will order and prepare Covid-safe gifts or Goody Bags for each child to receive using your generous donations.

What your donation could do

£5 could provide a gift for a child

£10 could fund a Goody Bag for a child

£15 could help provide festive refreshments for children, siblings and parents

£50 could provide a small gift for every inpatient on a 10 bed ward

Your donations will help brighten Christmas for children being cared for in hospital during the festive period (23rd - 28th December).

How to donate to your local children's ward

Simply make a donation to this page, stating which children's ward/service you would like to benefit or click on their respective page to make a donation direct. If you would like to open your own fundraising page to benefit a children's ward or service then please do click the "Start Fundraising" button on this campaign to get going.

Please remember that if the money raised exceeds the need for presents on the ward, your donations will still help support other important patient comforts and additional equipment that goes over and above what the NHS can provide. All donations raised will make a difference for our young patients.

Thank you so much. Your kindness and support will definitely help brighten up a child's hospital visit or stay over Christmas time.
