Fundraise in your Community

Do your own fundraising

We rely on the generous support of our community to raise a £2.3m to grant magical wishes and provide on going support within our community.

Help us grant magical wishes

When you host your own event or fundraise for us, you’re making a massive difference. Thanks to people like you – who host quizzes, dinners, coffee mornings and much more – you are providing magical moments and memories to treasure for local children with serious illnesses.

You can fundraise for us in so many ways, from hosting an event to having a collection box in your home, community hub or workplace. Whatever activity you choose to do, our team will support you to shine bright for seriously ill children every step of the way.

How your fundraising can help

We are reliant upon generous donations to fund our magical wishes. Here are just a few examples of the impact your fundraising could have for seriously ill children: 

  • £200 – could fund a special afternoon tea for a family to enjoy on a trip to London.  
  • £300 – could pay for a family of four to visit the Harry Potter Studios tour.  
  • £400 –  could fund for a limousine to be at a wish families disposal for the day taking the strain out of their journey and allowing them to feel like VIPs.   
  • £1,000 – could fund for every child attending our Christmas Party to get a new toy. 
  • £1,500 – could fund a wish for a seriously ill child to go to their favourite UK theme park including transportation and overnight accommodation.
