National Children’s Day 2024

An urgent dream is as special and unique as the children we support and range from hosting a celebration of life for a child, like we did for Benny, to creating cherished memories with loved ones for Myles. 

Urgent dream requests often have a very short time scale - we always work hard to go above and beyond to ensure we create moments of absolute magic with enduring impact. 

“The experience meant the world to us. Being able to create cherished memories as a family together whilst Myles was with us is something which we will never forget, and I want to thank Dreams Come True for their help. It created a unique day of laughter and fun at a time when Myles and our family had been through unbelievably tough times. Granting an urgent dream is so important, and at such a sensitive and overwhelming time for a family it can be a real lifeline.  I feel very passionate that more families in my position can experience this too.” - Rachel Humphrey, Dream Family Recipient (Mother of Myles) and Charity Trustee.

We were honoured when Rachel, Myles’ Mum, then chose to join our Board of Trustees eight years ago to support our mission to grant even more moments of magic with lasting impact to children across the UK. This show of support really illustrates the power of an urgent dream. 

Joanna, Benny’s aunt, said of our dream making:  

"We can’t thank Dreams Come True enough for making this urgent dream happen so quickly. Benny had a wonderful time, and it was probably the last really good day he had, so we got it in just in time. When you know your world is about to change forever, days like this mean everything. Thank you Dreams Come True, from the bottom of our hearts." - Joanna, Dream Family Recipient (Auntie of Benny).
