The Bond Wolfe Charitable Trust, in conjunction with Asha’s Restaurant have donated £500 towards the University Hospitals Birmingham Charity, to bring Diwali to the Children’s Departments over their 4 hospitals in Birmingham. The donation will help light up the wards and offer activities throughout the festive Diwali period to children and their families. “Sadly, we have many children who are in hospital during Diwali when their families would usually be celebrating. As lights are key to the Diwali celebrations, being able to provide these at the hospitals will help bring the festivities to the children and their families, bringing an element of normality to a very difficult and stressful time. We would like to thank Bond Wolfe and Asha’s Restaurant for their generous donation” - UHBC

The UHBC Children’s Appeal aims to support children by making their time in hospital a little more comfortable, less daunting, and create a child friendly environment.
Throughout 2022, we have been proud to support the University Hospitals Birmingham Charity, raising funds for the Young Persons Unit through our company fundraising activities.

The Help Harry Help Others (HHHO) charity was started by Harry Moseley before he lost his battle with cancer in 2011, aged just 11 years old. Harry was a young, courageous boy who became a major fundraiser in the fight to beat brain tumours. The registered charity, which supports cancer families in Solihull and Birmingham, was established in 2012 by Harry’s mum, Georgie. Due to the impact that cancer had on their family, Georgie decided to continue with Harry’s incredible work so that she could help other families where she felt more support was needed.
