The gallery group first formed a relationship with the charity during 2018 when it launched its Out To Play appeal to raise funds for the children’s playground, which was in desperate need of a refurbishment. Contributions from the sale of limited editions from Castle Fine Art artist , alongside other public and corporate fundraising, saw the new interactive playground opened with a special ribbon-cutting event late last year.

This partnership is set to continue during the coming year, as part of Birmingham Children’s Hospital’s soon-to-be announced Art Strategy, which is intended to leverage the very real benefit of art therapy in its many guises. Castle Fine Art will support a number of initiatives designed to raise funds, promote awareness and improve the experience of children receiving treatment at the hospital.

Daniela Quinlan, Head of Marketing for Castle Fine Art, said: “As a company, we recognise and champion the myriad benefits of engaging children with the arts. We established our campaign for that very reason, and – being a Birmingham-based company – having the Children’s Hospital as our charity partner for 2020 is a source of immense pride for all concerned.”
