Every single penny will go directly towards creating awareness and unforgettable dream experiences for seriously & terminally ill children across South Yorkshire. Whether it's meeting a hero, visiting a dream destination, or simply bringing joy during tough times, you've helped make that happen. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who donated, attended, volunteered, and cheered us on. You are the reason we can keep making these dreams possible.
