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.

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.”

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.”
