Partnering Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital Charity

The new partnership will play a key role in advancing Exyte Hargreaves’ continued commitment as a responsible business in delivering social value in local communities.

Over the year Exyte Hargreaves will fundraise through various events to support the charity in providing vital treatment, research and care for the 280,000 plus of young patients the hospital receives each year. The funds raised will contribute to the continuation of the hospital’s excellent, specialist pediatric care and treatment for children. Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital Charity plays a critical role in leading pioneering research into preventing, treating and curing complex illnesses in children. They provide the UK’s largest single site children’s hospital with state-of-the-art equipment to improve the diagnosis and treatment of children to deliver world class care which is enhanced by their various projects. By creating less clinical environments through the arts, play and chill out areas in the work that they do they are able to make the hospital a less daunting experience for patients. 

Andy Sneyd, Managing Director said 'we are proud to partner with Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital Charity who do such critical, incredible work in children’s illnesses. Delivering social value and supporting local charities has always been an important part of what we do as a business, however, this year, we’ve challenged ourselves to strive even further with the partnership and fundraising target of £20,000. I look forward to the business being proactive in the fundraising events we have planned for the year ahead and achieving our target.'

Rachel Laycock, Senior Corporate Fundraising Manager, said: 'We’re delighted that Exyte Hargreaves are so passionate about donating to our Charity and making a significant difference to the work we’re able to do for our young patients.

The figure they have chosen is an ambitious one but will certainly go a long way towards our mission of providing the very best treatment in the very best facilities. We want to thank the whole team for their generosity and look forward to working with them.'
