We believe that every child has the right to a good quality of life, no matter how ill they are. So we raise money to support individuals and organisations so that sick children can receive the highest quality care, advice and support.

Whether that's through providing nurses, equipment, carers or toys, working with hospitals and care organisations or directly with patients, we want to improve the lives of seriously ill and disabled children in the UK.

We think that's a Marvellous thing to do. We hope you agree.
