Where does the money go?
Every penny of sponsorship raised will be in support of the charity’s Children’s Appeal and will help to make a difference and create a calming and more enjoyable hospital stay for the 10,000-plus children and young people cared for at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust each year.
Last year, the charity ran a Give a Gift Appeal, which saw donations flood in from readers for the hundreds of children spending their Christmas on a hospital ward.
