Liverpool Women’s Hospital Charity are delighted to welcome Simon Krol, Director of Krol Corlett Construction as an official ambassador.
As an Ambassador, Simon will play a key role in raising awareness, supporting fundraising efforts, and helping the charity connect with new supporters.
Simon first got involved with Liverpool Women’s Hospital (LWH) through LWH Charity’s 2024 Strictly Come Dancing event which seen Simon stepping out of his comfort zone to raise money in support of the charity. This journey opened Simon up to his connection to the hospital and has since become a passionate supporter of the work of LWH Charity.
Simon said “Becoming an ambassador for LWH Charity is an honour. My family’s journey has included heartbreak and brought us a lot of joy with our three healthy children, all born at LWH. Supporting the hospital in this new role is my way of giving back and helping to ensure other families get the same incredible support when they need it most.
I’m proud to stand alongside the charity as an individual but also through Krol Corlett too, where we are passionate about supporting causes that help others.”
Simon and his wife experienced three miscarriages and delivered three healthy children at LWH, Simon understands firsthand the importance of the care and support the hospital provides to families.
Dr Yana Richens OBE, Director of Midwifery at Liverpool Women’s Hospital said “We’re delighted to welcome Simon as an ambassador to LWH Charity. The charity plays a crucial role in helping us go above and beyond our NHS funding. Having an ambassador like Simon, who shares our values is a great addition. His personal connection with our Trust will help us provide more support to families though their difficult and most joyful moments.”
The aim of the Liverpool Women’s Hospital Charity is to support the care given to patients and their families. Alongside that main aim we also help to fund research and staff welfare initiatives as well as providing greater access to training and development opportunities.
Kate Davis, Head of Fundraising for Liverpool Women’s Hospital added “Appointing Simon Krol as our first official ambassador represents a significant milestone for Liverpool Women’s Hospital Charity. This marks the launch of a wider ambassador programme designed to strengthen our presence across the city, engage new supporters, and amplify the impact of our work. We’re proud to take this step forward and deeply value Simon’s commitment to our cause.”
