From the top of the luxury Hilton Tower they were reminded of the need to support the NSPCC in the current economic climate. The event was used to highlight the charity’s Child’s Voice Appeal which aims to raise £2.7m in Greater Manchester over a three year period. People gave generously on the night and one supporter donated £27,000, equal to one per cent of the total target.
Hosted by the owners of the luxury penthouse, Ian Simpson and Jo Farrell, the first charity event of its kind in the penthouse gave guests unprecedented access to enjoy the stunning views from Western Europe’s tallest residential building.
If you would like to get involved with the Child's Voice Appeal then please contact us at northwestappeals@nspcc.org.uk or by telephone 0161 628 1209.

In February 2008 ChildLine began operating for the first time in Merseyside from the Hargreaves Centre, answering calls from children who mostly called about bullying, abuse and family relationship issues. Last year the NSPCC National Child Protection Helpline received nearly 3,000 calls from Merseyside postcode areas.
In 2007-08, ChildLine in Manchester provided 9,963 hours of counselling. The NSPCC Helpline received 5,598 calls from Greater Manchester and Lancashire postcodes from adults concerned about the safety of a child or seeking support. Bullying is the most common topic volunteers in Manchester deal with.
