Why join STEPtember?

Being in hospital can be intimidating, especially for children, which is why Good Hope Hospital Charity and Heartlands Hospital Charity hope to raise £250,000 to help turn the children’s outpatient departments into welcoming spaces for the 120,000 children that visit Good Hope Hospital or Heartlands Hospital every year.

Ward refurbishments are already making a huge difference to children being treated in other parts of the hospitals. The bright and colourful new spaces help to relieve stress for children and their families, and a fantastic, safe playground helps add fun and joy to their recovery journey.

The money raised during STEPtember will be used to provide a safe, welcoming, and more child-friendly space for the tens of thousands of children who are treated as outpatients every year.

About the charity

University Hospitals Birmingham Charity supports four hospitals in Birmingham - Queen Elizabeth, Heartlands, Good Hope, and Solihull. We support the patients, families and staff at our hospitals by providing 'added extras' that are over and above those which are provided by the NHS.
