About the charity
Did you know every day over 26,000 children are treated in hospitals and hospices in the UK? Serious illness is distressing at any age, but in children more cruelly so because it steals away childhood itself. Sick children in hospitals and hospices around the UK have the right to enjoy a carefree, fun and happy childhood despite their medical condition. Wallace & Gromit's Children's Foundation is the only UK wide national charity championing the cause of sick children by raising funds to improve the quality of life of children in hospitals and hospices throughout the UK. The Foundation funds an innovative range of projects to ensure children in hospitals and hospices have access to the very best comforts, facilities and equipment giving them a better, brighter future. These include arts, music and play therapy programs, sensory equipment and facilities, respite care, state of the art equipment and pull down beds and refreshments rooms for parents. These extra facilities not covered by statutory funding, can make an extra-ordinary difference to the lives of children and their families in hospitals and hospices. We can't stop children getting ill or cure every illness but Wallace & Gromit's Children's Foundation works hard to ensure that children in hospitals and hospices receive the very best care, comforts and facilities available. Please help us today.
