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 330,000 patients and families we care for every year.
Since April 2013, our supporters have helped us raise over £56m for a range of life-saving medical equipment and facilities that are making a real difference to families every day.
Our charity recently launched its new £2.5million Surgical Neonatal Appeal to help develop a state-of-the-art unit for newborn babies and their families at Alder Hey. The new Surgical NICU is a joint project between Alder Hey and Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust. It will offer an additional 22 neonatal cots for the region, including 18 individual family rooms where parents can remain alongside their poorly newborns whilst receiving expert care - a first for a surgical neonatal unit in the UK.
We know our amazing Santas will raise a huge amount for our brand new Surgical Neonatal Appeal to help the region’s babies and their families, and we can’t wait to see you all at the start line, Ho Ho Ho!
All runners who choose to support Alder Hey Children’s Charity will receive a fully branded unique running box which includes a technical t-shirt/vest.
Get in touch today and join our fantastic team of supporters.
Thanks,

Liverpool Women’s Hospital Charity
Putting patients first is at the heart of everything we do. Liverpool Women's Hospital Charity is registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales – registration number 1048294.
The charity works hard to raise funds on behalf of the Trust to enhance overall patient experience by providing services and equipment above what is normally funded by the NHS. These enhancements make a big difference to the comfort and wellbeing of our patients.
We fund initiatives and projects for our neonatal service, our gynaecology oncology service, our fertility service, our maternity fund and for the general priorities of our hospital.
We also fund schemes for staff welfare and wellbeing, improving facilities and space to make Liverpool Women’s Hospital the best it can be.

The Clatterbridge Cancer Charity is the only charity dedicated to supporting patients, research and staff at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre.
It's thanks to our supporters that we can achieve so much for local people with cancer, which may not be possible through NHS funding alone.
The money we raise allows us to fund life-saving research, invest in leading technology, enhance the patient environment and enable innovations in care.
Together we can make a real difference to the lives of those who need us.

Claire House Children’s Hospice helps seriously & terminally ill children live life to the full, creating wonderful memories & bringing back a sense of normality to family life.
Through specialist nursing & emotional support Claire House helps families smile when life couldn’t get any tougher, and make memories that will last a lifetime.
Claire House is about far more than just care.
It is a place for children to relax and enjoy themselves, whatever their age.
They can have fun in our multi-sensory room, art room, hydrotherapy pool and jacuzzi. There is a separate wing complete with bar, sound system and Xbox for teenagers and young adults.
We support over 300 families across Merseyside, Cheshire and North Wales, but more children are coming to Claire House than ever before – an 84% increase in six years – and we can no longer cope with demand.
With every day that passes, another family struggles on without the help they so desperately need.
We want to be there whenever and wherever families need help - your support can help us to increase the care we offer families in their homes and help more children at our hospice. If you're interested in fundraising for Claire House, please get in touch with the Events Team.

SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, is the UK's oldest national tri-service military charity and has been supporting our Forces and their families for more than 125 years.
We understand that life in the Forces is unique, so occasionally you or your family might need a helping hand. So, we're here to provide practical and emotional support to anyone who is currently serving in the Army, RAF and Royal Navy and their families when they most need it.
Last year our teams of volunteers and employees helped more than 85,000 people in need, from Second World War veterans to young men and women who have served in more recent conflicts, and their families.
We understand that behind every uniform is a person. We are here for that person – any time they need us, in any way they need us, for as long as they need us. The funds you raise will make a huge difference to the lives of our Armed Forces community who turn to us for support. So please get involved, raise what you can and have fun!

The North West Air Ambulance Charity’s helicopters and HEMS response vehicles operate 365 days a year, with highly skilled specialist doctors and HEMS paramedics on board providing enhanced pre-hospital care and hospital transfers to patients across the entire North West region each year – an area covering 5,500 square miles and over 8 million people.
Since it launched in 1999, the charity has been called to over 24,500 missions across the region, with the service called out an average of three times a day.
Just as many critically injured patients would not survive without the service that the charity provides, the North West Air Ambulance would not be here without the support of its community of fundraisers and partners. The charity is completely reliant on public and corporate donations to keep the North West Air Ambulance Charity service operational and helping to save lives, needing to raise over £9.5 million a year to support its lifesaving service.
For more information on the North West Air Ambulance Charity please contact Pam Atkins-Jones on pam.atkins-jones@nwairambulance.org.uk
