Together with our partners in the UK we are working to raise funds to give these children and their families to experience a getaway from the difficult situation they are facing and help them to have quality time together, away from the doctors and treatment, whilst still being close enough to a hospital if need. The diagnosis of childhood cancer in a loved one can be incredibly upsetting and often the treatment can be lengthy and expensive, removing the children from their normal everyday life.
Our partners in the UK have 3-holiday homes that are available for families with children undergoing cancer treatment to go to for a getaway and opportunity to spend quality time together in the most stress-free environment possible. There are opportunities to visit the animals, walk in nature or just relax at the home. These holidays are at absolutely no cost to the families and the funds raised go towards the upkeep, refurbishment, holidays costs and spending money for the families.
It costs $50 for an activity for a family of three thank you for your support.
