Recently, Liverpool’s men’s squad made their annual Christmas visit to Alder Hey, meeting with patients, their families and staff to sprinkle a little festive magic.
Reds head coach Arne Slot made his second visit to Alder Hey, alongside his players and backroom staff, visiting wards and taking part in a very special meet and greet.
The players posed for photographs with our children and young people, played board games and even took part in some mini-football activities.
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk told ALL RED Video: “It’s great for us to be here. It’s tough to hear certain stories, but we know what it could bring if we are here and visiting the kids. I’m really happy to be here.
“This place is full of heroes, in my opinion, helping so many kids through very tough times. Not only the kids, also the parents.”

Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones said: “I love coming here with the lads and putting a smile on the kids’ faces and the staff and the families.
“At the end of it, I hope the kids come away feeling more like themselves and the families get a real boost. And it’s nice to see the staff with how hard they work, giving them a bit of help as well.”
You can see some fantastic pictures from the event below.
