Staff from the North West’s NHS quality improvement organisation, the Advancing Quality Alliance (AQuA), have been helping to spread some Christmas cheer to local children and young people, by supporting Key 103 Radio’s annual ‘Mission Christmas’ fundraising appeal.

| AQuA staff support Key 103 Mission Christmas |
Staff have been helping to make Christmas a little brighter by buying extra gifts to donate to the appeal, to be given out to disadvantaged youngsters across Greater Manchester.
Mission Christmas helps to raise money and supports local children living in poverty. With an estimated 1 in 3 children living in poverty, last year it raised over £2 million in cash and gifts to help over 51, 500 of the region’s 0-18 year olds.
Improvement Advisor Eleanor Peet, who coordinated the appeal for AQuA, said:
“We’ve had a fantastic response and it’s been really nice to see staff donating their gifts to help make Christmas morning that little bit special for local kids and young people.
“Whilst we work across the North West, we are based in Sale, so we do like to support local causes when we can, and Key 103’s Mission Christmas is a great way we can do our bit to share some festive cheer.”

Nice site, It strikes a nice balance of the concept. I had a natural tendency towards 'mindfulness' from a young age. I am glad that I will definitely be coming back here more often. Wish I could add to the conversation. Thanks for sharing.
