Produced annually by activeTV, performers included Guy Sebastian, Human Nature, Bella Taylor Smith.

Managing Director Seven Melbourne and Head of Network Sport, Lewis Martin said: “It was an honour and a privilege to bring the sheer joy and heart-warming stories of the Good Friday Appeal to Australians, on a truly special day on the Victorian calendar.

“To see Victorians rally together and dig deep to support the Good Friday Appeal, after an incredibly difficult two years during the pandemic, proves how special The Royal Children’s Hospital is to all of us.

“The Appeal is a great partnership between The Royal Children’s Hospital, Channel 7 and the Herald Sun, and we’re rapt by how Victorians responded this year,” he said.
