Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Alder Hey Children’s Hospital is the busiest children’s hospital in the UK caring for over 275,000 young patients each year. Alder Hey is a Centre of Excellence for children with cancer, heart, spinal and brain disease and a National Centre for head and facial surgery, we are one of only four centres nationally to provide epilepsy surgery and one of two accredited major trauma units for children in the North West – our A & E department treats nearly 60,000 children every year. We are here for every child every day, providing remarkable care with excellence and dedication.

In October 2015 we moved into our brand new world class hospital, Alder Hey in the Park, the only hospital in Europe built entirely in a park.

Consisting of six standard wards, each with 32 beds, and 48 critical care beds for patients in ICU, HDU and Burns, Alder Hey in the Park has 16 operating theatres and is the most sustainable 24hour hospital ever built.

75% of the hospital’s 270 beds are in single-bed occupancy rooms with en-suite facilities and a dedicated chef on every floor prepares fresh evening meals for patients as and when they want them.

There are play areas within every ward and easy access to external play areas and gardens. There are also additional areas for parents and families including parent rooms, a 150 seat restaurant facility, gardens and a spiritual area.

Alder Hey Children’s Charity raises funds to support the hospital’s pioneering work and aims to improve the quality of life for not only the young people we treat each year, but through innovations and research into childhood diseases, the quality of life for children in hospitals across the world.

Every donation we receive enables us to make a difference to our patients and their families; your vital donations help us to fund research and innovation, provide specialist equipment, enhance patient experience through digital innovations and play equipment and create a better environment and facilities for families.

Your support means the world to us, thank you.
