About Making Cards
Who can make cards?
Anyone and everyone can! Making cards for hospitalised and seriously ill children is
a simple yet very fun and creative way to make a difference.
People of all ages and artistic abilities can create cards. We have even
had 2 year olds making cards for us, so there is definitely no age limit or much artistic
ability needed. Our cards go to a range of different hospitals in the UK, as well as children who are unwell
but being cared for at home or in a hospice. Making cards is simple and can take a
matter of minutes, yet the impact is huge. When a child receives your card the aim is to brighten
their day and help them remain positive as well as well as remind them someone is thinking
of them.
We also distribute some cards to geriatric wards. Elders often do not have many visitors whilst in hospital and they love the cards they receive!

Where do the cards go
and what happens to
them after I send them in?
After you have sent in your cards we will sort through them
and categorise them(i.e birthday, general, etc), as well as making
sure they are suitable for sending to hospital. Once
we are finished sorting through your cards we will safely store
them until we are ready to send them off to a hospital located
in the UK. Your cards will then be given to a hospitalised child.
