Faculty charity fundraising 2024

We're aiming to raise £10,000 for Liverpool Women's Hospital Charity.

Staff and students from the Faculty are embarking on a series of exciting fundraising events this year to raise money for the charity's Bereavement Suite Appeal.

This important initiative aims to transform clinical rooms into comforting, home-like spaces for families who have sadly experienced a pregnancy loss or stillbirth.

We are delighted to support Liverpool Women’s Hospital as our charity partner this year. LWH provide critical services for women and babies from across Liverpool and beyond.
