Thomas Cook/Variety Club Hawaiian Day at Leonardo’s - 03.08.2007 |
On Monday 6th August Leonardo’s, Playa de las Americas plays host to the Thomas Cook fun day; raising money for the Variety Club.
Formed in 1949, Variety Club has raised more than £170 million and made a real difference to children's lives throughout the UK:
- £3 million to build and improve the Variety Club Children's Hospital at King's College Hospital in London
- £250,000 to St George's Hospital in Tooting to help open a new intensive care ward
- More than 4,000 Sunshine Coaches
- 3,000 Easy Riders electric wheelchairs
- Every Christmas they give over 3,000 toys to children who would otherwise have no present of any kind, and we entertain more than 100,000 youngsters each year at a wide range of exciting venues.
This is made possible because volunteers from many walks of life give generously of their time and money, supported by a galaxy of celebrities from show business and sport.
There are never enough resources to answer every appeal, but, thanks to your generous donations, Variety Club has been able to spend the last 50 years helping where help is needed.
