Snowflakes have been painted on Sheffield bus as part of First Bus South Yorkshire<\/a>‘s re-established partnership with Sheffield Children’s Hospital<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bus company is re-starting their partnership with the Snowflake Appeal<\/a>, fundraising for Sheffield Children’s Hospital to raise awareness and provide better care and facilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The campaign, which started in 2004, has been raising money for the improvement in care for children across the UK. This year in Sheffield the money raised will go to an innovative new technology centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A dedicated bus has been launched, decorated with snowflakes, traveling across Sheffield. It will mainly appear on the 51 and 52a bus routes as it will pass in front of the hospital. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holly Newton-Steele, Corporate Partnership Office at Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity said: \u201cThe Children\u2019s Hospital Charity is so excited to get our partnership with First Bus on the road! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith this special vehicle, First Bus is helping us to celebrate the 20th anniversary of our Snowflake campaign. and we’re so grateful to them for supporting the occasion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Bus have supported the hospital for over 20 years. Many families connected to the bus company have received care from the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lauren Wilks, Marketing Executive of First Bus Midlands, Manchester and South Yorkshire said: \u201cSheffield\u2019s Children Hospital means a lot to the people of First Bus. They have provided life saving care to our families and we are so happy to be partnering up with them again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Christmas period, they will be bringing back their popular Santa Bus, with Father Christmas and elves on board. They will be raising money and awareness for the hospital\u2019s phenomenal work, as well as bringing the festive vibe across the city with a cheaper alternative. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bus will run from 16th December to Christmas Eve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
