Northern Group x Ronald McDonald House Manchester

This Christmas, Northern Group are proud to partner with Ronald McDonald House Manchester, a remarkable organisation that provides a “home away from home” for families with children receiving life-saving care. With 65 ensuite bedrooms, the House offers free accommodation for families whose children are being treated at Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital and St. Mary’s Neonatal Unit.


Some families have to travel long distances, sometimes even internationally, so their children can receive specialist care and Ronald McDonald House provides more than just a place to stay. It’s a sanctuary where families can rest, eat, and support each other, just moments away from their child’s hospital ward. Last year alone, they welcomed 503 families, with the longest stay lasting 869 nights.

 

Join Us in Making a Difference


This festive season, we’re inviting our community to spread some Christmas cheer by donating gifts for the families staying at Ronald McDonald House Manchester.  Your donations can help brighten the holidays for families facing unimaginable challenges.

Here’s how you can get involved:

  • Bring unwrapped gifts for children aged 0–18 to the Northern Group office in Ancoats.
  • Place your donations under our Christmas Tree by 13th December
  • We will deliver the presents to Ronald MacDonald House 

Every single gift will make a difference, offering a moment of joy to families during one of the most difficult times in their lives.

 

A Legacy of Support and Care


Since 1989, Ronald McDonald House Charities UK has supported over 95,000 families, ensuring they can stay close to their children receiving care. With 14 Houses across the UK, including Manchester, their work is made possible through the generosity of donors, volunteers, and fundraisers. This vital support allows parents to focus on what truly matters, being there for their child. However, as an independent charity, they rely entirely on donations to continue their incredible work.

 

Let’s Make a Difference Together


We’re honoured to support Ronald McDonald House Manchester this Christmas and invite our community to join us. Together, we can help bring comfort and joy to families who need it most.
