Who can benefit from a special day?

The Foundation defines seriously ill as any condition that is life threatening. Special days have been organised for young adults living with, amongst others: cancer, motor neurone disease, cystic fibrosis, heart disease and organ failure.

The aim of any special day is to offer 'time out' from treatment and allow seriously ill young adults to spend quality time with friends and family whilst pursuing an activity they all enjoy.

To date the charity has organised and funded more than 1,700 special days.
