Bilfinger has announced Alder Hey Children’s Charity as its chosen charity partner marking the start of an 18-month partnership focused on making a difference to children and families across the Northwest and beyond.
Alder Hey is one of Europe’s leading children’s hospitals, caring for more than 1,200 children each day and supporting around 450,000 families every year, delivering world-class treatment and specialist care when it is needed most.
Alder Hey Children's Charity funds the 'above and beyond' projects, innovations and experiences that help make Alder Hey an extraordinary place for children, young people and their families. Throughout the partnership, Bilfinger will support Alder Hey Children's Charity through fundraising, colleague engagement and charitable giving, helping to make a meaningful difference for children and young people.
Our partnership will focus on bringing even more moments of magic to the Alder Hey experience, helping children and young people of all ages and abilities feel happier, more confident and supported, while giving families comfort, hope and reassurance throughout their journey.
Liam Durkan, Corporate Partnerships Fundraiser at Alder Hey Children’s Charity, said: “We're delighted to welcome Bilfinger as one of our valued corporate partners. At Alder Hey Children's Charity, every partnership helps us go above and beyond to create moments that make a real difference for children, young people and their families. From play specialists and music and art programmes to cutting-edge distraction equipment and our MediCinema, it's thanks to the support of businesses like Bilfinger that helps us bring those moments of magic to life.
“A massive thank you to Bilfinger, for choosing to support Alder Hey Children's Charity. Here's to making more magical moments together."
Derek Harcus, Vice President Finance, Business Unit Asset Performance, Segment Western Europe, and Executive Sponsor of the Charity Committee in the UK, said: “We are incredibly proud to support Alder Hey as our chosen charity partner. The donations are just the beginning – what makes this partnership stand out is the passion of our people who will be driving this campaign.
“Over the next 18 months, we’re looking forward to coming together as a business to take part in challenges, events and initiatives to raise even more funds and awareness for a charity that makes such a meaningful difference to so many families.”
