Best friends Hughie and Freddie need YOU to help revamp the much-loved rooftop play area at Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital.

Best friends Hughie and Freddie need YOU to help revamp the much-loved rooftop play area at Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital.

Hughie is a leukaemia patient at our hospital and Freddie is his best friend, who has stood by him throughout his diagnosis and treatment.

The area is so-well loved by patients, it has become worn and shabby. After 14 years of happy memories and use by our patients, it needs to be completely overhauled to bring it back to life.

Join Hughie and Freddie today and help them raise £300,000 to refurbish the rooftop play area!
