Our goal is to have a wish village that provides critically ill children & their families with accommodation that is full of magic and wonder, where nothing is too much and where imagination is the start. Whilst we build to this we work with our families to allow them to make memories together.

Story

Emmett's Genies was established with the aim of creating a "Wish village". Whilst we work towards this big, ambitious goal we provide the following:

- Boredom Busting Activity Packs to our beneficiaries (critically ill children) during their hospital treatment.

- VR headsets to borrow to use at home when isolating due to illness.

- Our huge annual Year in a Day event. Every September we host a very exciting party for our amazing beneficiaries and their families. The event gives these kids a "bonus year". In just 24 hours we celebrate Valentines, Easter, summer, Halloween, Guy Fawkes and Christmas. Our children miss out on these celebrations due tk hospital stays and, sadly, some of our children may not see these holidays in the near future.

We make their weekend as stress-free as possible; providing them with accommodation, food, treats, parties and gifts. We spoil them as much as we can for those 24 hours.

When we have our eventual physical village, we will be hosting a party every night. So whilst we don't have our village, we want to bring the parties to them.

Please give generously, you can be assured to make their year!
