Overview

Gambling Connection: THE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL CHARITY LTD holds a UK Gambling Commission licence, enabling it to run charitable fundraising activities such as lotteries on behalf of Sheffield Children's Hospital. This is the sole basis for its presence in the Saferwager database.

THE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL CHARITY LTD is a private company limited by guarantee, registered at Sheffield Children's Hospital, S10 2TH. It was incorporated on 1 September 1975, giving it nearly five decades of continuous operation as an active charitable entity connected to Sheffield's specialist children's hospital.

The company's SIC code (86101) classifies it under hospital activities rather than gambling, and it isn't flagged as a gambling-related business in its own right. Its connection to the UK gambling industry comes through its UKGC licence, which it holds to run small-scale fundraising activities such as charity lotteries. It's been continuously licensed since 2015.

As a company limited by guarantee with no share capital, it has no shareholders. Its PSC filing confirms there's no individual or entity with significant control, which is standard for charities of this structure. It has a well-established board with multiple UK-resident directors overseeing its governance.

Governance

The charity has a large board of UK-resident directors, with several long-serving trustees and a number of recent appointments in late 2024. Its PSC filing states there's no individual or entity with significant control, consistent with its status as a charitable company limited by guarantee.
