The new Ronald McDonald House, nearby the Evelina London Children’s Hospital, was officially opened today by a special guest, the Duchess of Cambridge.

Ronald McDonald House provides a ‘home away from home’ for families of children staying at the Evelina London – many echo families have stayed at RMH over the years.

Having a baby is a life-changing moment but for you having to go through all that as well is extraordinary.

The new 59 bedroom home replaces the former RMH accommodation at Guys Hospital, and provides private bedrooms plus communal kitchens, lounges and play areas – and is much closer to the Evelina London.

ECHO is a huge supporter of Ronald McDonald House and we thank them for caring for our families at a time they need it most.
