Make-A-Wish is a national children’s charity granting wishes to children aged between 3 & 17 who are battling life threatening illnesses such as leukaemia, cystic fibrosis, Duchenne muscular dystrophy and many others.
A wish has been proven to help children feel stronger, more energetic, more willing and able to fight their illness. It can also improve a child’s state of mind, replacing fear with happiness and helping them to feel like a normal kid again. We have granted wishes for over 1,500 brave children, allowing them to experience the hope, strength and joy each wish provides. We try to ensure that all immediate family members participate to provide long-lasting and happy memories for everyone.
We receive no government funding and rely completely on the generosity of the public to help us grant our wishes.
We cannot add days to a child’s life but we can, with your help, add life to a child’s day.
"For us as a family our wish has created some wonderful memories that will stay with us forever, regardless of what the future brings".
