Lucy's Urgent Dream

Dreams can come in all shapes and sizes and for some families, it’s the simple joy of having a celebration to mark their son or daughter’s birthday. 

For some it’s a milestone they didn’t think they’d reach, and others sadly it’s likely to be the last birthday they will share together.

Not all children can spend their birthdays at home, and instead celebrate with their doctors and nurses in hospital.

At Dreams Come True we want to make these parties as special as possible,  and make each young person feel at home and have the chance to forget their troubles. 

For a child like Lucy, dealing with a terminal cancer diagnosis, her family didn’t want her to miss out on a third birthday party, so we took the party to the hospital ward instead!

These moments of happiness and normality are so important for Lucy, and even more special for her parents who will have those memories forever.
