Who We Are
We're the proud parents of a courageous young boy named Louie. Throughout his life, Louie spent a considerable amount of time in hospitals, where we witnessed firsthand the gaps in NHS care. Following his passing in October 2023, we're determined to make a difference.
Despite the brevity of his life, Louie's journey was filled with cherished memories, both within and beyond hospital walls. Inspired by his resilience, our mission is to transform the hospital experience into a positive one for children and their families. We aim to create cherished memories that bring light to dark times and leave no room for regrets.
What We Do
Our goal is to bring a sense of normalcy to families undergoing hospital treatment, whose lives have been turned upside down. Drawing from our own experiences, we collaborate closely with hospital staff to provide comforting and helpful items.
We cater to both children and parents. Kids receive clean pyjamas, socks, and toys, while parents get essential care packs. Our support directory compiles useful contacts for families in need.
How We Work
We're a charitable trust that relies on public donations to operate. We do this by hosting fundraising events such as games nights, partake in local sports events such as The Great North run and collect donations from the public. We also sell merchandise where all proceeds are profited and go towards the items we donate to hosptials.
90% of our funding directly supports our cause and the remaining 10% is allocated to marketing and awareness. This investment consistently yields returns, ensuring that not only is the initial 10% recouped, but often, it surpasses this amount.
