We support grieving children & young people to help them achieve their full potential.

Story

Investec Cheltenham and Bristol are supporting Winston's Wish as a local charity for the next two years. Whilst throwing ourselves out of a plane at 10,000ft takes some doing, it's nothing compared to the challenges facing children who have lost somebody so close to them.

Winston's Wish supports bereaved children to help them when they are most vulnerable and believe in a society where every child can get the help they need.

Donations as little as £5 (plus your gift aid!) can help fund any of the following:

£5 Could provide four specialist publications, which offer parents and professionals advice and guidance on how to help bereaved children cope with their grief.

£8.50 Could enable us to provide one child with a memory box that can be used to store treasured objects, helping them to remember their loved one in a way that is personal to them.

£20 Could cover the cost of operating our website for one day, including Help2MakeSense, a support forum for bereaved young people.

The charity also runs a National Helpline for free on 08088 020 021 which supports 10,000 children a year alongside face-to-face support which helps 1,500 children a year.
