IMAGINE is the name of Alder Hey's charity, a fundraising campaign that helps us to continue our pioneering work, to develop facilities and to offer the very highest standards of care to our young patients. Every donation we receive helps us to achieve even more to improve the quality of life for children in hospital. From researching medical conditions to buying vital equipment, to building a better environment and providing support for patients and their families. We are soon to be starting a quarterly newsletter. If you are interested in subscribing to this newsletter, just send an email here with the Message Title as 'Subscribe' and your name and the email address that you want the newsletter to be sent to in the main body. The IMAGINE logo has been created from John Lennon's drawings for his son Sean. Permission to use the image has been generously granted by Yoko Ono IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DONATE MONEY, TIME OR RESOURCES TO IMAGINE, PLEASE CONTACT US OR DONATE ON LINE.
We have all been children, so we have a good idea of how a child might feel when they have to visit a hospital. Thankfully, through IMAGINE, we can all do something to help make it a less distressing and more comfortable experience, and ensure that Alder Hey's pioneering work continues to make a difference to the lives of children in hospital.
"Alder Hey is a world renowned children's hospital, based in John's home town of Liverpool. When the hospital approached me to ask if I would support their wish to use one of John's drawings for their new IMAGINE campaign I was only too delighted to help.
I don't think many people know John's artwork, but sketching was like his security blanket - when he wasn't playing the guitar he was drawing. It seems to me entirely appropriate that one of the images he created out of love for our son Sean should be used to help the hospital to care for children worldwide."
