JCI Southampton are pleased to be supporting The Murray Parish Trust as our charity of the year.

The Murray Parish Trust was founded to make sure that Paediatric Intensive Care Unit in Southampton hospital has the best, up-to-date lifesaving equipment it needs, and the space to use it in.

The charity is dedicated to raising funds for paediatric facilities not only in Southampton but across all of Hampshire, The Isle of Wight, Dorset, West Sussex, Devon, Surrey, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Wiltshire and The Channel Islands.

Their latest challenge is to raise £4 million for a brand new Paediatric Emergency & Trauma Department (A&E) based in Southampton to cover the entire South of England and The Channel Islands. The government have pledged £2 million so it is the Trust’s mission to raise the additional £2 million through their #2MillionSteps campaign and make this new, life-saving department a reality.

JCI Southampton will be supporting the charity through the year in their efforts.
