Story

Our son, Kit, recently had open heart surgery at Birmingham Children's Hospital. The surgery was more challenging than anyone anticipated and he ended up on life support for 3 days. Thanks to the care, dedication and expertise of all of the staff at BCH he is making a good recovery and we are now enjoying smiles and cuddles at home. 

We want to raise as much money as we can for BCH to enable them to continue to invest in cutting edge medicine to help other sick children and to help fund the vital support provided to families to help them through some of the hardest times of their lives.

We are planning to run the Great Birmingham 10k, the Two Castles Run and Stratford's Big 10k (Andy might be pushing Kit around some of these courses)! 

"At Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity, we believe there’s always more we can do for our sick kids and that’s why we will always strive to do more for our patients and families. It’s our mission to raise the vital funds needed to make a real difference to all who use our hospital.Your support empowers us to take innovative approaches to treating some of the sickest children in the UK. Your fundraising enables us to make our hospital feel just like home. Your donations are helping us to find new ways to treat and cure childhood diseases."

About the charity

It's bewildering and unsettling for anyone going into hospital but especially for children and that is why we are a fundraising hospital. We raise funds to enhance the experience of our patients by providing state of the art medical equipment and facilities and creating a child-friendly environment.
