I am walking, running or jogging 31 miles this October to help bring smiles to patients at Alder Hey Children's Hospital.

Alder Hey Children’s Charity raises vital funds to help make Alder Hey Children’s Hospital a truly world-class, patient-friendly hospital for the 45,000 patients and families we care for every year.

Since 2013, over £70m has been raised for a range of life-saving medical equipment and facilities that are making a real difference every day.

That money also ensures that every child experiences Alder Hey magic – those little added extras that make the hospital experience the best it can be during a young person’s stay.
