What We Do
We are a UK wide charity providing specialist nurses and support for children with complex, lifelong conditions.
35 years supporting seriously ill children
In 2026, Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity celebrates 35 years of providing specialist support for seriously ill children and their families across the UK.
This milestone is both a celebration of the extraordinary difference our Roald Dahl Nurses have made to thousands of children and families, and a moment to look forward with ambition to expand our impact and Roald Dahl Nurse network.
Our work is only possible because of the community of supporters behind us. The runners, cake-bakers, organisations, grant-givers and individuals, who give so generously. Please join us in celebrating 35 years by fundraising to establish More Marvellous Nurses.
