How can you help? - Sponsorship Schemes

Hospital Schemes
These schemes are organised for children that are in hospital receiving treatment. For many children hospital can be a stressful and upsetting time especially if it means being away from their families. Surprisingly there are only a small amount of specialised paediatric renal wards across the UK so for some children they are quite a distance from home. Our aim is to offer fun and enjoyable activities wherever possible (All parties are based on 10-15 children).

£500 - £1000 Day trip - Group sponsor of 5-10 children
£150 Christmas Hospital Party
£100 - £150 Seasonal days - Easter, Valentines etc
£100 Entertainers - Face painters, Magicians, Balloon artists
£75 Cinema Days - DVD's & Treats
£50 Tea Parties / Teddy Bears' Picnics
£50 Day Trip - Child Sponsor
£30 Distraction Toys - Help with invasive procedures
£25 -£50 Ward Toys - To help educate and stimulate play

Family Based Sponsorships
These are offered to the family as the child is at home. These are extremely important as they help in two areas, helping a family spend time together or by helping to ease the workload at home (due to the child's illness).
