It specialises exclusively in the diagnosis, treatment and care of all disease, disorders and illness peculiar to childhood and adolescence. It incorporates the Royal Children’s Research Institute and the Murdoch Institute for Research into Birth Defects.

Every year, 30,000 children are admitted. They may receive treatment in one of the key specialist areas, such as heart surgery, cancer treatment, plastic surgery, diabetics, renal services or brain surgery. The Hospital offers a full range of allied health services and provides care for 330,000 outpatients annually.

For over 60 years, the community has gathered together and given from the heart, to ensure that our hospital has the best medical equipment and research facilities possible.

During the Appeal we have the opportunity to look inside the Royal Children's Hospital. We see the dedicated hospital staff at work, witness the "miracles" happening and understand the strenght and courage of the young and vulnerable patients.

I invite you all to join the wonderful band of people who contribute to the Good Friday Appeal each year - it's a great feeling to "Give that they may Grow".
