Granted Wishes
When You Wish Upon a Star have proudly been granting Wishes for over 31 years to some very brave and courageous children who live with a life threatening or terminal illness who have not previously had a Wish granted by another charity.
We are able to grant the Wishes of hundreds of sick children and their families every year through community fundraising, corporate fundraising and donations. Our fundraisers work tirelessly to arrange events and to enable Wishes. You can help our fundraisers by volunteering or organising an event.
