Ronald Mcdonald House Charities Northern Nsw (Rmhc Northern Nsw)

Ronald McDonald House Charities® Northern NSW, a Chapter of RMHC Australia, operates and manages programs across Northern NSW that supports sick or injured children and their families. Our Houses at Newcastle and Tamworth provide a ‘Home away from Home' to families of sick or injured children. Our goal is to provide an atmosphere for families and their children, where the familiar routines of home life can continue as much as possible. The House offers a home like environment full of compassion and understanding in a stressful and often difficult time. From a shoulder to cry on to a kiss goodnight, when you're undergoing treatment having a family around can make all the difference. Ronald McDonald House Newcastle opened its doors in 1991, and since then has grown to accommodate well over 800 families per year. The House located at Tamworth Hospital provides care to over 200 families each year. The Ronald McDonald Family Room in the John Hunter Children's Hospital is a "home within a hospital" and is a place you can go when you can't go home. This is a place for families and carers with child patients in the hospital to take a break and still be near their children. Over 600 local families use the Family Room every month. To support the families of the Central Coast we also have a Family Room located within the Gosford Hospital. And families with a seriously ill child from throughout Australia are welcome to utilise the Ronald McDonald Family Retreat on the water at beautiful Forster. It is a haven for families to take a break away from reconnect having been through tough times with their sick child. All of these facilities exist due to the generosity of our donors and the community. As a charity, we rely on this support to be able to provide families with the support they require.
