Today I have finally got around to sorting out a JustGiving fundraising page
So far I have made £93.00 which is going to the Ronald McDonald House Charities at Alder Hey
(Charity Registration No. 1008765)
"Ronald McDonald House at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital provides accommodation totally free of charge for the parents and carers of the most critically ill children who are in patients in Alder Hey Hospital. The House has been open for 16 years, more than 15,000 families have been accommodated in our 70 family rooms. The House is full to bursting every night with a waiting list of 20 or more families. In 2010 the Charity is hoping to open 15 family apartments for long stay families ( 6 months or more ). RMH at Alder Hey is the biggest RMH in Europe with running costs of £400k per year, the estimated cost for the new development is in the region of £1.5 million. There has never been a better time to support the ‘’ House that love built’’ "
I have been knitting some beautiful items, which people have been buying off me, and I have some lovely projects still to come, plus some very generous donations off friends and family.
If you would like to donate towards my cause then please click on the link below
Without the RMCH it would have made life very difficult for us because of the distance travelling to see him, and having to find people to look after our other children. A worry which you don't need while your child is in hospital! Their onsite 'home from home' made it possible for us to all stay together.
