Story

Welcome to the #WishHero team!

Get started by creating a fundraising page and keep up to date with your progress by taking a look at the team leaderboard. Every single pound raised has a big impact and we're here to help every step of the way.

Right now over 134,000 children in the UK are eligible for a wish because they are dealing with the grueling reality of life with a critical illness. When it comes to their dreams, they deserve to wish for more than a life defined by their illness.

Critical illness brings a child’s joy to an abrupt end but Make-A-Wish UK is part of a global movement that grants life-changing wishes that have the power to turn tears into cheers, rescuing the magic of childhood even in their toughest times and providing a lifeline for families to spend precious time together.
