Charity Partnership

Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity - Our Charity Partner

Edinburgh Airport's official charity partner for 2024 and 2025 is Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity (ECHC) (Opens in a new tab).

The charity supports the life-changing work of Edinburgh’s Royal Hospital for Children and Young People (RHCYP). It helps support seriously ill babies, children, young people and families from the moment they begin their hospital journey.

More than 60 fantastic charities and organisations initially put themselves forward to be the airport's next charity partner when applications opened in October 2023, and ECHC was successful following a vote among airport staff.

Priority was given to charities that support or align with the four pillars of Greater Good, the airport’s sustainability strategy - Zero Carbon; Enhancing Scotland; Scotland’s Best Business; and Trusted Neighbour.

Throughout 2022 and 2023 the airport had been collaborating with West Lothian-based charity The Larder, providing almost £170,000 worth of support throughout the partnership.
