One in every 29 young people of school age has experienced the death of a parent or sibling. That's around one in every classroom.
We work with schools up and down the country to ensure bereaved children get access to the support when they need it. We cannot do this without amazing fundraising support from schools, teachers and pupils.
Charity of the Year
Get your school, class or year group involved and jazz up your timetable with a year’s worth of fun and exciting activities! We provide the resources, ideas and activities for a great year partnering with Winston’s Wish.
Wish Upon a Star
Do something magical for bereaved children and have a Wish Upon a Star tree in your school this Christmas. Our Christmas campaign invites you to decorate stars with wishes, messages, special memories or drawings to add that special touch to your tree.
Wear 'W' Day
Wellies, Wigs, Wands… everyone loves to dress up! Why not host a Winston’s Wish ‘Wear W Day’! All your school children need to do is dress up in something beginning with the letter W and donate £1 to take part.
