Spread a Smile has been Children with Cancer UK’s charity partner since December 2023 and last month we were delighted to welcome their new CEO, Gavin Maggs, to a special tea party for the families we support at Riding House Café in Bloomsbury.
Gavin met Spread a Smile’s Chief Executive, Lucy Jackson, our family events team and some of our VIP guests, saying, “It was a great pleasure to join everyone at Spread a Smile’s tea party. The event really highlights the important work they do to support families affected by childhood cancer. It certainly put a smile on my face, and I look forward to working with Lucy and her team.”
We are extremely proud of our partnership with Children with Cancer UK and grateful for all their support, helping us to spread thousands of smiles every year. Since the partnership began, Children with Cancer UK have helped fund Spread a Smile’s in-person and virtual entertainer visits to seriously ill children and young people with cancer in NHS Hospitals, also supporting our summer and winter parties and an annual event for families who have lost a child.
Lucy Jackson said, “It was a pleasure to welcome Gavin to one of our family events to see Spread a Smile’s work in action and show how we spread smiles every day to seriously ill children and their families. Our thanks go to Children with Cancer UK and all their team for supporting our vital work and we look forward to working closely with Gavin as we continue to develop our brilliant and impactful partnership.”
