Ronald McDonald House Manchester has 65 en-suite bedrooms and provides free 'home away from home' accommodation to families with children receiving treatment in the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital and St Mary's Neonatal Unit.

Families travel to Manchester from across the North West, the UK and even internationally, so that their children can receive specialist treatment at The Royal Manchester Children's Hospital.

Ronald McDonald House Manchester has 14 members of staff and last year 568 families stayed there.

The longest family stay last year was 785 nights.

There are now 14 Ronald McDonald Houses across the UK, including one at Alder Hey Hospital, in Liverpool.
