charities over the last 15 years. In addition to this Macdonald

events.
Macdonald Hotels & Resorts are proud to support the
following nominated charities:
Place2be
The Place2Be is a school-based counselling service, dedicated to
improving the emotional wellbeing of children, their families and
the whole school community. Children today have all sorts of
worries - from friendships to bereavement, domestic violence, gang
culture or crime. By supporting children early, Place2Be gives
them the chance to grow up with prospects rather than
problems.
Chernobyl Children's Life Line
Chernobyl Children's Life Line was established in 1991 to offer
social, health and educational support to children contaminated by
the Chernobyl disaster in 1986. As a result of the fall-out
thousands are born every year and go on to develop different forms
of cancer. The charity brings children over to the UK for four week
recuperative breaks.
Blythswood Care
Established in 1966, Blythswood Care offers practical help for
those in need. Whether through filled shoeboxes at Christmas,
relief and development aid or social projects for the young and
old, Blythswood brings hope to thousands in Europe, Africa and
Asia. They are committed to long-term sustainable projects working
alongside local knowledgeable charities at the heart of these
communities that require support.
Help for Hospices
Help for Hospices is the leading national charity for hospice care.
They support over 200 hospices that care for babies, children and
adults with life-limiting illnesses. In addition Help for Hospices
also sustains national fundraising initiatives, national projects
and professional education.
