More information
We work alongside Clic Sargent and the Macmillan teams in Children's Cancer Hospitals & Young people's Cancer units. There are now 15 hospitals providing the Cash Gift from Josies Dragonfly Trust to children and young people where treatment is no longer considered curative. We are now getting on average two or 3 Cash Gift requests each week although we given 15 Cash Gifts in one month alone. We have given well over 350 Cash Gifts since we started. Because of Josie’s own experience she understood exactly what was needed.The cash gift gives young people a sense of independence as they can spend the money as they wish. This is particularly important for young people who have been unable to earn there own money.
