LIVING WITH CANCER > ORGANISATIONS > SEARCH ALL > STARLIGHT CHILDREN'S FOUNDATIONStarlight Children's Foundation
A registered charity that grants the wishes of seriously and terminally ill children between the ages of 4 and 18. Children with cancer are eligible for a wish as long as they are able to choose and articulate the wish for themselves and the child has not had a wish from any wish-granting organisation previously. Also, children who have been off treatment for over two years are generally considered to be ineligible for a wish.
The wishes chosen are as varied as a child's imagination and can be anything from becoming a zookeeper for a day, to a VIP sightseeing trip to London, to a holiday for the whole family, to a bedroom makeover or a computer.
Starlight's wish-granters will do everything they can do to make the child's wish come true. When Starlight grants a wish to a child the whole wish is organised and paid for by Starlight and, where possible, the whole family is included in the wish experience (siblings under the age of 18).
