Liverpool Marriott Supports WWG Foundation for Eighth Year

As part of its commitment to helping local causes, Liverpool Marriott has hosted its eighth convention for the Walking With Giants Foundation, welcoming families from around the globe and helping to raise more funds for the charity.

Based in Merseyside, the Walking With Giants Foundation offers to help individuals and families affected by primordial dwarfism and works in partnership with Liverpool Marriott Hotel to bring people together from all walks of life who have the condition, as well as offering support to their families.

The annual function, held at the four-star city centre hotel, offers a chance for parents of children with primordial dwarfism to find out more about the condition and discuss any concerns with medical experts.

This year’s convention saw families attend from all around the world, to meet like-minded families, relax, and enjoy what Liverpool has to offer. The fundraiser included an Easter egg hunt for the children that spanned across the hotel, while staff and family members took part in swimming, jogging or cycling the distance of a triathlon to raise funds for the charity.

Ludwig Duweke, General Manager at Liverpool Marriott, said: “We’re very proud to be able to say we’ve supported the Walking With Giants Foundation for the eighth year running and we hope to long continue our support of this wonderful charity.

“The foundation plays a crucial role in the lives of people all over the world and we are keen to do all we can to help such a worthy cause. It’s a fantastic way to bring people together and offer them the support they may need.”
