Good Friday Appeal 2026

Doin It 4 The Kids

For the thirteenth year running, Hunky Dory Fish & Chips is proud to support the Good Friday Appeal, raising vital funds for the Royal Children’s Hospital.

From 20 March to 3 April 2026, we’re turning everyone’s favourite extras into real impact:

  • 🥔 $1 from every potato cake sold will be donated to the Appeal

  • 💙 Customers can RoundUp their bill to the nearest dollar to contribute even more

After raising $35,000 last year, we’re aiming to beat that total and push our overall fundraising past $255,000 since the campaign began.

On Good Friday (3 April), our stores will come alive with DJs, kids’ entertainment and giveaways — all while raising funds for sick children and their families.

Join us in-store and help make 2026 our biggest year yet.

The Good Friday Appeal has been raising funds for sick kids and their families at The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) for 95 years.

Through the generosity of the community, the RCH continues to deliver world‑class, comprehensive care.

Every dollar donated supports:

  • Ground‑breaking research
  • State‑of‑the‑art equipment
  • Training and unique patient‑centred care programs

In just one year (2024–2025), hundreds of thousands of kids were cared for:

  • 85,415 appointments for urgent and essential care in the Emergency Department
  • 53,450 admissions to a ward, where children and young people received expert, compassionate care
  • 15,106 surgeries, paving the way for brighter futures
  • An incredible 456,000 outpatients seen — that’s an average of 1,250 appointments a day

By supporting this fundraiser, you are part of the impact, helping children live their best possible lives.

Please help make a difference and share this page with your friends, families, and networks.

Thank you for giving for the kids.
