Charity event for Birmingham Children's hospital

We are delighted to announce our next charity event, World Book Day!

On Wednesday 5th March (the day before official world book day) we will be holding a World Book Day Themed Day. Staff are invited to dress up as their childhood favourite book characters & to bring in a copy of their favourite childhood book to donate. On this day, we will be asking all staff to bring in a copy of their favourite children's book to donate.

We will be collating all these storybooks in order to take to Birmingham Children's Hospital, where we will donate these books to children/families who need them. Some children are so poorly in this hospital that they have to stay in the hospital for very long periods of time where simple home comforts such as sharing a bedtime story with their parents from the comfort of their own bed with their teddies is not an option.

By donating these stories, we will be able to create these moments for the children where their parents/carers will be able to read to them, they can listen to fairytales and let their imagination run free which is what all children should be able to do.

If any other chamber members would like to get involved, we can look at getting the books posted to us in order to take to the hospital, the more books and awareness, the better. We just ask that all books donated are new (due to risk of infection from old / used books).

Please email any enquiries to our organiser Daisy - daisy.lashford@vogueuk.co.uk
