how you can help

The children’s heart unit saves lives every day, and provides vital care to thousands of children each year. But we need to keep supporting the unit to help ensure current and future patients receive the best possible standards of care.

So far this year, we have spent £270,000 on parent accommodation and £180,000 on ultrasound machines. We fund psychologist and social worker posts, and support staff training course. We recently refurbished the play room on Ward 10, and we continue to supply young patients with home testing kits that reduce the number of hospital visits they need.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who donates time and money to help us support these and other projects. But we need your help to keep making such a big difference in the lives of our patients and their families.

Ultimately, the fate of the children’s heart surgery unit in Leeds will be decided by Government Ministers. It is vital that they are made aware of the serious impact its closure would have on families throughout Yorkshire and surrounding areas.
