Making a difference for every child, every day

Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital opened in June 2009 and is home to state-of-the-art facilities that have been designed with its young patients very much in mind.
  • Based in Manchester city centre we treat over 240,000 children every year, from Cumbria down to Stoke-On-Trent and as far as North Wales
  • For our specialist services this reach can extend across the whole of the UK and even internationally
  • With 371 beds we are the largest single-site children’s hospital in the countryThe hospital is a national centre of excellence for:
  • Bone marrow transplantation, for which it is the main centre outside of London
  • Burns treatment - the hospital houses the largest paediatric burns unit in the country
  • Critical care – the hospital’s paediatric intensive care unit is the largest in the country, looking after patients ranging from new-born babies to 16-year-olds (sometimes even older)
  • The Charity supports the hospital in three main areas: Treatment, Care and Research. The NHS can only provide so much – the charity goes the extra mile to provide those added extras. These extras can range from state-of-the-art pieces of equipment to the creation of child-friendly areas which are less clinical and more comfortable, all the way to pioneering research at our world-renowned Children’s Clinical Research Facility.
  • Most importantly, we treat your customers and your employees’ children. We’re a charity which offer tangible benefits and full transparency by funding projects which directly affect those closest to you throughout the local region.
