You are doing amazingly well, and the online community is always fantastic for our individual events! Thank you!

We have a one-in-a-million #FeelGoodFriday post for you this week... 🤩 Alder Hey has developed a life-saving new treatment for a rare condition called Vein of Galen Aneurysmal Malformation (VGAM), which affects just one in a million children.

Such a fantastic thing to do, thanks everyone! 💙 www.leaderlive.co.uk/news/2535141...

Decline in uptake in measles, mumps and rubella vaccination is resulting in nationwide outbreaks of measles disproportionately affecting children in disadvantaged areas. www.gov.uk/government/n...

During the summer holidays, it can be difficult to find affordable and accessible things to do with children and young people. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of free things you can do during the holidays👇

Congratulations to the amazing Lionesses 👏👏👏👏👏

Unfortunately I didn't get in to the London Marathon, and the Manchester Marathon is a little while away yet, so I thought I'd do a fun little challenge to raise money for @alderhey.nhs.uk @alderheycharity.org in November! www.justgiving.com/fundraising/...

Happy 77th Birthday to the NHS!

The charity is delighted sponsor the two day 'Child Health Inequalities in a time of Political Changes' INRICH Workshop at the amazing Tung Auditorium, University of Liverpool @putchildrenfirst.info

We are proud members of the End Child Poverty Coalition. Today sees the release of child poverty stats by constituency, and the numbers are horrific. We can do better than this.

Children need to be at the heart of the Ten Year Plan for Health. It was a pleasure to speak to @alderheycharity.org about their campaign to put children first!

When I was a teenager Alder Hey saved my life, so I’m delighted to support the #PutChildrenFirst campaign led by @alderheycharity.org. I went along with Sophia and Jai to deliver their letter to @primeministeruk.bsky.social, calling for action to help young people lead happier, healthier lives.

Thank you Matt, what a star!

Ahead of the Child Poverty Strategy and the 10-Year Health Plan, @alderheycharity.org, handed in its open letter to No 10. The letter we signed alongside 30 children and nine other organisations urges the Government to help children live happy, healthy lives. drive.google.com/file/d/1L18N...

🏃‍♀️ I’m running the London Marathon in TWO days and really can’t wait now - and that has nothing to do with being out of Liverpool on Sunday. Honest. Raising money for @alderheycharity.org if you have anything spare for an amazing cause 👇🏻

The most amazing young people, supporting our advocacy campaign. Well done Havin, Jai and Sophia.

Inspiring to meet young people from Oasis Lordshill today, who travelled from Southampton to Westminster to share views on child poverty. I’m so pleased reducing child poverty is a priority for Labour, with breakfast clubs now opening and the PM forming a task force to tackle the issue head-on.

@alderheycharity.org @childrenssociety.bsky.social

Today, children and young people on behalf of @alderheycharity.org visited 10 Downing Street to hand in an open letter. The letter, signed by over 30 children from ten organisations, outlines what our young people need to live happier and healthier lives. 1/3

Our advocacy campaigning, as @putchildrenfirst.info is incredibly important to the overall work of the charity, campaigning for the real voice of children to be heard at the heart of government. Find out more at www.putchildrenfirst.info

The #PutChildrenFirst campaign by @alderheycharity.org is gathering letters from children. Jai wants the Government to listen to children and young people. If your organisation has a youth group, what do they think needs to be done? Let us know via the link here: putchildrenfirst.info/%22
