ABOUT RMHC SYDNEY

What does RMHC Sydney offer?

add remove

RMHC Sydney is more than a place to sleep. At RMHC Sydney, we are privileged to meet some of the most resilient and positive families that there are and yet they are living this news for real. In times like this, you come to realise what really matters - family.

RMHC Sydney located in Randwick, gives seriously ill children the best gift of all – their families. A family to lean on when you are feeling your worst and a family to celebrate the wins with. A family who just lets you be you.

Our House is a warm and supportive home-away-from-home for families of children travelling to Randwick for treatment at the Sydney Children’s Hospital.

At RMHC Sydney, we are committed to providing family-focused care allowing families to stay by their child’s side during their treatment at the Sydney Children’s Hospital.

Our communal facilities help to create a social and supportive environment and offer a few of the comforts of home that make life just that little bit easier.

How much does it cost to spend a night at RMHC Sydney?

add remove

On average, it costs $160 per night to support each family staying at Ronald McDonald House Charities Sydney (in Randwick).

For the families staying at the House, their entire stay at no cost, to help relieve some of the pressures of being away from home.

In the traditional sense of the word, a night would simply refer to a roof over someone's head for the night, but at Ronald McDonald House, it means so much more to our families.

A night for our families means:

  • Supported accommodation at no cost, so families can focus on their sick child
  • A network of support through other families, staff and volunteers
  • The hospital is a quick 5-minute walk away
  • A kitchen full of food, with meals cooked by our supporters three times a week
  • In-house education support by qualified teachers
  • Access to 40 hours of free tuition when the patient returns home
