CASH FOR KIDS SUPERHEROES Dave Evans Photography Liverpool was brought to a standstill as Radio City’s Cash for Kids granted 5 wishes to 5 children supported by When You Wish Upon a Star as part of Cash for Kids Super Hero Day. A police escort lead a convoy of 5 Supercars across the City Centre to The Royal Court where the 5 little Super Hero’s captured “The Evil Villain” to save the day. Cash for Kids Superhero day is Radio City on air campaign where the charity asks for support from listeners and local businesses to dress up as Super Hero’s’ and fund raise for the day, this year supporting When You Wish upon a Star a charity who grants wishes to local children with terminal or life limiting conditions. With everyone’s support CFK raised over £71,000! Carole Clare charity manager said “We want to thank so many people for making the day happen I am always so humbled by people’s good will and actually sometimes all you have to do is ask the question. From Merseyside Police, Fire Brigade, the Super Car owners, Liverpool sightseeing tours to Merseytravel and The Royal Court we would not have been able to make this all happen the look on the kids faces was priceless. Also we want to thank every single person who donated, WYW are now going to able to continue to make more memories for local children and their families.”
