We take part in The Dahlicious Dress Up Day. Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity exists to make seriously ill children's lives better. Quentin Blake Nurse Illustration Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity cares about children with lifelong neurological and blood conditions. These rare conditions receive very little funding, even though they have a huge impact on both the child and the family around them. We work in partnership with organisations who share our belief that all children have the right to the best possible quality of life. We raise money to help support children in the UK living with conditions like acquired brain injury, neuro-degenerative conditions, rare forms of epilepsy and long-term blood diseases (excluding cancer).
