Story

Having supported Water Aid for many years and see first hand the amazing good it does for people and the joy and hope it brings, I thought it was probably time to share some of my efforts with another worthwhile cause. When a child is faced with a bleak future to give them something else to focus on changes there outlook, gives them a lift and a radical change for the better.

Make-A-Wish® UK grant life-changing wishes for the thousands of critically ill children across the UK. Sadly, the number of wish enquiries from seriously ill children with less than a year to live is rising fast. They need help to meet this urgent demand now - before it’s too late. For families with critically ill children, every day counts. Your support has the power to make a wish come true for a critically ill child, allowing families to create lasting memories that they will treasure forever – no matter what the future holds.
