Alder Hey calls for public's help to fund new mental health centre

Alder Hey hospital has launched an appeal to raise £3 million to fund a new mental health centre by 2022.

People are being encouraged to get out and get active, running, walking, cycling or swimming as many miles as possible, in the hope that collectively, a million miles for mental health can be reached.

A new home for inpatients and community mental health services is currently being built next to the main hospital, but the hospital say money raised from fundraising will help them to 'achieve their vision', and offer the best service to young people.
