A Disney Wish

With the help of Disney, we recently had the privilege of granting 17 magical wishes at Hoar Cross Hall.

A Disney UK Experience - Creating Magical Memories to Treasure Forever.  

With the help of Disney, we recently had the privilege of granting 17 magical wishes to our wish children and their families. Families travelled by ferry to the magical Disney UK experience at Hoar Cross Hall in the Midlands, exclusive to Make-A-Wish families.   

During their visit, wish children and their families enjoyed an enchanting breakfast with Mickey and friends, honing their web-slinging skills with Spider-Man, enjoying a Toy Story carnival with Buzz and Woody, Jedi training, Storytime with Belle, and meeting Anna, Elsa, and Olaf from Arendelle. 

Families also enjoyed a lunchtime picnic in the sunny gardens and a fabulous drone light show during their three-day Disney experience.  

Hear from some of our inspirational wish families below: 

“Thank you so much for the amazing wish trip. It was so wonderful from beginning to end. We will never forget the joy on Kian & Sophie’s faces as all their Disney dreams came true.” 

“Thank you so much to you and the team for getting us all together for such a lovely experience. It was truly magical, I have never seen Skye so happy, and it was lovely for all the parents to come together. Certainly, a trip we will never forget.” 

“It’s very difficult to put into words what you have done for our family. We have had the most magical time with you guys, as a family we have created memories that will last forever.” 

“We have never been able to go away overnight together until now. You guys made that happen and our whole family was able to look forward to a very special trip which exceeded our expectations by a million miles.”

Together we can make a difference for children.

Make-A-Wish Ireland has one simple aim – to grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions, to bring hope, strength and happiness.

With your kind support, you can help us achieve that aim.
