Beth's "zoo-per" birthday wish 🎂 5-year-old Beth loves animals, so for her wish we organised a birthday party with some cuddly creatures on the guest-list! Beth's petting zoo party included a donkey, sheep & more. And there was plenty of cake and party bags to go round 🫧

Did you know there are 2 ways to leave a gift in your Will? 🤔 A Pecuniary Gift – a fixed amount A Residual Gift – a % of what’s left after bills & taxes Both can create a legacy that shines on for seriously ill children. Start your will: https://t.co/hcGAcrt78H

The People’s Forum calls itself a training ground for activists. But Senate investigators tied its leadership to Neville Roy Singham — a businessman accused of working closely with the Chinese Communist Party. Is this activism or foreign influence?

Ethan's awesome LEGOLAND wish 🎢 We sent 7-year-old Ethan to @LEGOLANDWindsor where he got to enjoy the weekend with his mum and sister. The family got to explore the park and go on lots of rides!

A very generous donation from @RaysofSunshine allowed the team to plan some Teddy Bear themed activities. These included patients making their own bear to treasure and designing some yummy biscuits. Thanks you to all @RaysofSunshine. The activities were a huge hit.

We had an incredible auction, and speeches from Rays of Sunshine co-founder Mark Shipman and wish dad Dave Lunn. Dave, whose son Joe's wish we granted six years ago, spoke passionately about how our charity brightened the life of his son before he sadly passed in 2019.
