Proud to be the Queensland partner for Hospitals United For Sick Kids

We are so proud to be the Queensland partner for Hospitals United For Sick Kids 💛 – the only national alliance of hospitals for children in Australia.

And this morning, we were delighted to welcome the Today Show to The Prince Charles Hospital to showcase some of the wonderful impacts of this incredible partnership.

This alliance has helped tens of thousands of Queensland children by funding patient care initiatives, vital equipment and research that helps sick kids to get home and back to the things they love and miss.

One amazing outcome of this partnership in Queensland is the appointment of a Child Life Therapist at The Prince Charles Hospital. It has also recently funded the expansion of the Child Life Therapy program into Caboolture Hospital.

Today, our team was so excited to meet the new Blip mascot. The kids also loved their new Blip plushies, which are available at Toymate and help to fund projects and equipment that support sick kids across the country.
