WellChild

You will need to reach your target one month before
your jump date and online via Virgin Money Giving.
If you prefer to pay for more of your jump so more of the money donated goes to the charity you are welcome to do so, you will still need to meet the £395 target for Wellchild to cover your jump balance.
About the charity
There are thousands of children and young people in the UK living with a long-term or complex health condition. WellChild is the national charity working to ensure the best possible care and support for all these children and their families wherever they are and whenever they need it.
- Our network of WellChild Children’s Nurses provide practical and emotional support to children with complex care needs and their families, enabling them to leave hospital and be cared for at home wherever possible.
- With the support of teams of volunteers, we make family homes and gardens a better, safer place for seriously ill children and young people to learn, play and have fun.
- Through our WellChild Family Tree, families of seriously ill children can chat and support each other online and through face-to-face local groups. We also provide dedicated support to children with the rare condition Wolfram Syndrome and their families.
- We’ve invested more than £20 million in ground breaking projects over the past 30 years leading to many improvements in children’s heath spanning from pain relief to liver and kidney disease.
- We ensure that the needs and views of families with very sick children are heard by decision makers.
