What is a Dream?

Our dreams create moments of magic with lasting impact… 

…and are personal to each child we work with.  

Whether that is a break for a young cancer patient, a specially adapted trike for a child with cerebral palsy, a tablet to help an autistic teenager develop their communication skills, or a seriously ill child’s room makeover. 

No matter the dream our team of dream makers, work closely with our dreamers to deliver a unique experience, that will provide moments of magic and have a lasting impact long after the dream has come true.  

The types of dreams we offer are:  

Home Makeovers: Bedrooms redesigned by our team of dream makers, inspired by each dream child, or garden play equipment to enhance a child's environment

Reimagined Community Spaces: Sensory rooms and outdoor playgrounds reimagined for children to access in their community 

Getaways: UK holidays and cherished experience days built to inspire a lifetime of memories 

Or something from our Small change, Big impact Programme: This programme aims to improve the daily lives of isolated children through access to vital equipment and technology. 

Our Makeovers, Experience Days and Small change, Big impact Programme can all be delivered on an individual basis or as part of a Community Dream.

Have a read through of some of our amazing Dream Stories and see the moments of magic and lasting impact our dreams have had on the children we support.
