In September 2008 her dream came true as she was accepted onto the paediatric nursing course at Teesside university. On December 8th her big day came and she put her uniform on for the first time, little did anyone know it would be her last. Sadly on December 12th Victoria died very suddenly. An autopsy showed she had Sepsis, bronical phnomonia and Emphya. Victoria loved children and was never happier than when she saw a child smile. Victorias Wish provides three or more activities a year for children who have cancer or other life threatening illnesses, Grants to help with Medical, travel and funeral expenses as well as respite breaks. We always include mums, dads and siblings in the events as we hope to create happy memories to treasure forever, as sadly some of our children die. We also hope to prevent isolation as sometime when a family leave the hospital environment they feel very lonely, parents have told us that the activities we provide create an enviroment where they can meet with other families who are going through similar situations as they are. Victorias wish is run by a small team of volunteers that fundraise endlesly to keep alive the legacy of love that was left behind by Victoria.

Autism Unseen campaigns to not only create a greater awareness regarding autism, but to also deliver experiences to autistic individuals that they would not normally be able to achieve.Social exclusion, being bullied, lack of confidence, and limited employment opportunities are all part of the daily life of an autistic individual. From teens through to adulthood the disadvantages of being autistic are only too plain to see, and these unfortunate youngsters are often on the treadmill of life, but going nowhere.Autism Unseen has a mandate to change this, to speak to schools and colleges, to remove social exclusion, to increase work opportunities, to create a greater awareness surrounding autism and to deliver a series of outstanding events, such as the Kilimanjaro Challenge and others to follow. AUTISM UNSEEN - KILIMANJARO CHALLENGEThe Kilimanjaro Challenge, taking place in August 2017, is the first of its kind, three years in the planning. It is a life changing experience for our team of 10 autistic individuals, who will be taking part in this epic adventure to climb 20,000 feet and stand on the ‘Roof of Africa’. Please follow the event link below and donate to this challenge. Without your kind donations the Kilimanjaro Challenge would not be possible. By your generosity, you will help provide these autistic individuals, with an opportunity to not only scale the heights of Kilimanjaro, but to also take part in an individual challenge, that requires courage, fortitude and a commitment to succeed.
