Watch: Reds make virtual Christmas visit to Alder Hey The Liverpool FC squad made a virtual Christmas visit to Alder Hey Children s Hospital this year to spread a little festive cheer among the patients and staff.
Every December, the Reds first team take the short trip to the hospital in West Derby, which delivers vital care for more than 330,000 children and young people, and their families, each year.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic meant the players were unable to visit the wards in person this time – but that was not going to stop them meeting some of the youngsters currently being treated.

Evertonâs Alder Hey visit with a difference Thursday, 10 December, 2020
Everton FC and Alder Hey Children s Hospital made sure that young patients didn t miss out on their annual Christmas visit despite coronavirus restrictions thanks to innovative robotic technology used by the hospital for the first time outside of a clinical capacity.
Over two days this week, Blues players Seamus Coleman, Mason Holgate, Andre Gomes, Gylfi Sigurdsson, Michael Keane, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Tom Davies, Ben Godfrey, and Jordan Pickford used specialist robot telemedicine equipment and software to take part in virtual ward visits, hand out presents virtually and bring smiles to the young Alder Hey patients, many of whom will be spending Christmas in hospital.
