We fulfil unforgettable Special Days to support seriously ill 16 - 40 year olds

Story

Donations to the Magic Wand Foundation will go to national charity the Willow Foundation (www.willowfoundation.org.uk) and will fund special days specifically for 16 to 40 year olds living with cancer.

"Since my diagnosis I have been so lucky that I have fitted so much in - holidays, days out - so many special memories. Happy times for me and the chance to share quality time with the people that mean so much to me. As my cancer has progressed there has been so much sadness, the realisation that we can send a man to the moon but we can't always fix cancer. Through the sadness, I have searched for something positive to come out of the situation - I want to help other people and I want others to be able to have good times through the hard times. I have come to accept that I cannot control my cancer but I can control what I do with the time that I have and I am determined to make a difference..." - Helen

For those living with a life-threatening illness, every day deserves to be treated as precious.

The Willow Foundation is a national charity that organises and funds special days for 16 to 40 year olds living with serious illness.  Special days provide the opportunity for them to enjoy quality of time and quality of life with their loved ones, away from the hard realities of living with a life-threatening condition.  Special days bring hope, happiness and empowerment at the most difficult time in their lives.

The Magic Wand Foundation has been established by Helen Bull, a supporter of the Willow Foundation, to help make a positive difference to the lives of other young people living with cancer.
