Creating Brighter Futures
Incredible Technology
We build strong partnerships, work with leading innovators and invest in trail-blazing equipment to constantly push the boundaries of what is possible for children’s healthcare.
Building a Healthcare Campus
We are committed to creating the best possible environment for our patients, families and clinicians as we continue to develop the Alder Hey Healthcare Campus, inspired by children and nature.
Make Magic Happen!
Our Deliver the Magic Appeal needs your support to fund magical experiences such as music and art provisions to support children and young people at Alder Hey. Our workshops, practitioners and programmes make such a difference to the wellbeing of patients and families across the hospital, and with your support, we can Deliver the Magic this Christmas.
Theo
Frankie

Lincoln
Theo
When Theo was born, he was diagnosed with sepsis and moved to intensive care, where he was found to have two inguinal hernias and was transferred to Alder Hey for a specialist procedure. His second operation was successful, and Theo soon made a full recovery and was able to go back home just one day later.
Frankie
Prior to his birth, Frankie had been diagnosed with gastroschisis, which meant he would be born with his bowels on the outside of his stomach and would need surgery to fix this. Despite a difficult experience, the following day Frankie was reunited with his mum. He now continues to recover and is exceeding expectations.
Rosie
Rosie was just under 3 months old, when she had her heart surgery. Since then, her heart scans have all been great and these days she is a happy little ball of energy who loves to listen and dance along to music, shout at anyone and everyone, and give the biggest smiles to family and strangers alike!
Lincoln
4-year-old Lincoln was born with a Congenital Heart Defect and has been under our care since day one. Since then, he has already undergone two open-heart surgeries at Alder Hey, but his infectious optimism and positivity is apparent to everyone at the hospital who has the good fortune of meeting him!
