Wear Colour for Crosshouse
Get ready to brighten up your school and make a big impact with an exciting Wear Colour for Crosshouse Day!
Choose any day in September and invite your school, group, or club to swap uniforms for the brightest and most colourful clothes to help transform the children's wards at Crosshouse Hospital!
Every year, thousands of children are cared for in the children's wards at Crosshouse Hospital, often feeling anxious and overwhelmed by the clinical environment. Stress can adversely affect the long-term health and well-being of these children and their families, who frequently describe the wards as cold and not child-friendly.
With the support of the Ayrshire community, the Crosshouse Children's Fund aims to raise vital funds to create colourful, comfortable, and welcoming wards for young patients, their families, and the dedicated NHS staff.
Let's come together, celebrate with colour, and make a meaningful difference in the lives of children in the hospital.
