Smile with us for World Smile Day 2024

780 400 Susie

For us, every day is a Smile Day with our entertainers doing all they can to spread smiles and laughter to seriously ill children and young people in hospital.

This year, World Smile Day takes place on Friday 4 October and we’d love it if you will join us to help spread even more smiles far and wide.

By donating just £30, you’ll help fund a bedside visit by one of our amazing entertainers to a seriously ill child in hospital.

Or why not be inspired by one of our other support ideas below…

  • Buy a Christmas gift from our Amazon wish lists – Help us send out over 12,000 Christmas gifts through our hospital deliveries and festive Smile Hampers for unwell children and their siblings. Buy your gift from our Amazon Wish lists for babies and toddlers, sensory items, and teenagers.
  • Smile and fundraise with friends – get together with friends for coffee or lunch, share some smiles and collect a few ££ from everyone to support our work. Find motivation by watching our new ‘About us’ film here.
  • Get your company smiling – by donating as a company, offering gifts in kind for our Christmas Smile Hampers, or bringing colleagues together for your own fundraising ‘Smile Day’ on a day that suits you. Whatever you do will make a huge difference to the families we support.
  • Be social and share your smile – We love seeing pictures of you and your little ones doing something that makes you smile. Share yours on your social media and tag us to make us smile! Find us on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn and X.

We hope you’ll join us for World Smile Day to celebrate Spread a Smile and everything that we stand for.

Please do reach out to the team for any support or help with your ideas – we’d love to hear from you.
