✨JOIN OUR SCOTLAND WISH SQUAD 2026!✨

When You Wish Upon a Star has a simple mission, “To grant the wishes of children aged 4-16 who live with a life-threatening illness”

 When you register with us, you will receive a When You Wish Upon A Star running top and a fundraising support pack.

Why we grant a Wish

We firmly believe every child deserves to smile. The magic of Wishes is that they provide time away for our Wish children and their families, giving them something to look forward to during exceptionally difficult times in their lives. 

A Wish has the power to transform their lives, offering excitement and something to focus on.

Wishes come in all forms, much needed respite holidays across the UK, Taylor Swift concerts, being a zookeeper or pilot for the day, meeting celebrities or even something as simple as an iPad to keep in touch with extended family and friends while in hospital. Each experience is tailored as we create life-long precious memories for our families when they might not have thought it could be possible to achieve through illness or disability.    

Your support means the world to us, thank you!
