Every year Edinburgh Children’s Hospital Charity distributes around £1.5m for the benefit of children and young people in the hospital in Edinburgh but also at St John’s in Livingston and other healthcare settings in the Lothians and Scottish Borders.

  • Your regular gift helps us to budget more effectively and use our resources more efficiently meaning that we can do more with the funds we have. The grants that we make include:
  • Parental accommodation – we support PJ’s Loft and the family accommodation which allows parents and families to be close by and not worry about the cost of a long stay.
  • Supporting the training of Play Specialists who provide real support for family members and medical staff by ensuring that children are less stressed and still have opportunities for fun, play and creativity while in hospital.

Edinburgh Children’s Hospital Charity exists to transform the experiences of children and young people in the hospital so that they can be a child first and a patient second.

Regular gifts make such a difference

  • £5 per month could help us to provide 50 Theatre Certificates per month, given to children when they have had an operation or a procedure.
  • With £10 per month we could purchase 40 reward presents a month. These small gifts help to reward bravery when having a treatment or a test.
  • £100 per year could pay for a film to be shown in the hospital for up to 10 children and their friends and families to enjoy together with treats.

Thank you – we simply could not do as much as we do without you.
