Make-A-Wish UK is part of a global movement that exists to make life-changing wishes come true for the thousands of critically ill children across the UK. The power of a wish allows families to create lasting memories that they will treasure forever – no matter what the future holds.

Story

TB+A is passionate about supporting charitable and community events across all our national offices and when the challenge arose to take on the London Marathon, our Wish Heroes being ordinary people with extraordinary hearts saw it as a fantastic opportunity to support such a worthy cause. 

We have worked in the Healthcare sector for many years, more recently for Guy’s and St Thomas’ Evelina London Children’s Hospital & Great Ormond Street Hospital, both world leaders in life-changing care for children, young people and their families.  We have gained an insight and understanding of their great work, and through many of our colleagues whose children, or children they know, have experienced treatment & hospital care, we felt Make-a-Wish UK would be the perfect charity for us to be able to make a difference by training every day, every hour, and turning the pain into power! 

Our Wish Heroes are using all their strength to raise our target of £10,000 for the Make-A-Wish charity, which provides seriously ill children with the opportunity to create incredible memories, build confidence and provide respite from the daily struggles that come with a life-threatening condition.

We all have the capacity to be a Wish Hero, you just have to find your unique power or ability to dig deep and make a donation! The cape and mask are optional but generosity and a kind heart are essential.

Thank you so much for your support!
