Buying a virtual gift means we can not only guarantee gifts to all our brave young patients at Christmas but we can also continue to bring magic to Alder Hey every single day of the year! A gift can help now with projects like those below.
- £7 the gift of cinema! Just £7 brings the magic of cinema to our young patients as we create our brand new MediCinema at Alder Hey. A ticket to a movie can be a window onto the world and offer much needed relief for patients and families at Alder Hey.
- £12 the joy of play! £12 contributes to our Play Service, facilitating therapeutic play across all patient areas and the equipment and materials needed to make hospital life brighter. Physical play supports well-being and compliments physiotherapy as well as helping to reduce infection. Crafts and creative play can help children to express their feelings and provide distraction.
- £25 makes mealtimes fun! £25 supports our innovative ward chef programme, delivering fun menus packed with nutritional meals to help our young patients stay healthy and recover in hospital. Meals and snacks are tailored to the needs and tastes of each child and can support young patients living with cancer to take on the energy they need to get stronger.
- £50 The magic of live music Just £50 brings music to the very bedside of our young patients through fun, child-led sessions with qualified and experienced musicians. These sessions help develop confidence, self-esteem and provide distraction from pain and anxiety.
