We fundraise to ensure that every baby, child and young person treated at Scotland's largest children's hospital receives the extra special care they deserve. We raise funds to help those who tirelessly care for and nurture young lives at their most vulnerable; to invest in equipment, research and the continued improvement of facilities and services for children and families in hospitals.

Santa and his elves will return for our Santa Selfie activity along with our pop-up shop (with a variety of gifts & GCHC merchandise), and our gift wrapping service and we’ll also be collecting whilst our fantastic choirs perform. Come join in the fun and get into the festive spirit. We're looking for volunteers to help; - Man our pop-up shop & take payments - Gift wrap presents - Help with 'elfing' duties (give out sweets to those that visit Santa) - Collect donations whilst choirs perform Full training and support will be provided throughout your shift(s).
