Story

I’m proud to support Holly’s Hearts, a charity dedicated to creating heartwarming memories for children with cancer. Your donation will help bring comfort, joy, and unforgettable experiences to brave children and their families.

🎁 About Holly’s Hearts

Holly’s Hearts was set up by Mark and Jenny Prince to honour the memory of their daughter, Holly Prince, and to continue her legacy by “Creating heartwarming memories for children with cancer.”

Holly was born with Bloom Syndrome, an extremely rare genetic condition that increased her risk of developing cancer. She was diagnosed with a high-risk Wilms tumour (kidney cancer), which relapsed twice. After the second relapse, treatment options were limited, and the cancer progressed quickly. Despite showing incredible courage throughout a two-year battle, Holly sadly passed away in April 2022, aged just five years old.

Later that year, Holly’s Hearts was founded to provide gifts and experiences to children with cancer—whether in hospital, receiving treatment as outpatients, or in remission, since relapse can happen at any time.

🌟 Our Mission

In April 2023, one year after Holly’s passing, Holly’s Hearts became a registered charity (No. 1202667). Since then, the charity has gifted over 140 gifts and experiences to children with cancer, helping to bring smiles, comfort, and cherished memories during unimaginably difficult times.

💖 “Together, we can honour Holly’s legacy by making magical memories for children with cancer and their families.”
