Story



IMPORTANT: EVENT NOW TAKING PLACE ON THE 13TH JUNE

Spread a Smile provided support to me when I was going through Ewing Sarcoma, through charity funded trips to the West-End, or through improvements to my emotional well-being. Under normal circumstances, Spread a Smile would be delivering 35 monthly visits to eight London hospitals, bringing fairies, magicians, face-painters, therapy dogs, singers and lots more to bring smiles to and enhance the wellbeing of seriously and terminally ill children and teenagers. As a result of COVID-19 they've had to suspend all visits and face-to-face contact with patients. But they know that those smiles are now more important than ever. Young patients in hospital have become more isolated than ever before. This is why they need your help. Because with your help, suspending their hospital visits does not have to mean suspending smiles.
