Your stories, your experiences

Children, young people and families are at the heart of WellChild's mission to improve the health and wellbeing of all children. As part of this, we're committed to giving everyone an opportunity to share their experiences and play a part in influencing our work.

We're looking for families and individuals who would like to share their story or experiences of caring for a child with a medical condition or disability. Your stories can be an inspiration to others and help us to understand more about children's health and how it can affect the whole family.

If appropriate (and of course with your permission), we may also use your stories to highlight the work that WellChild does. As well as helping to raise our profile, this in turn can help with fundraising which ensures that we can continue our vital work.

We are also continually developing new ways for families to get involved, including a parents' forum and a children and young peoples' user group. We'd love to hear from you if you would like to get involved in shaping our future.

For more information, or if you'd like to talk about your story, please contact Amy Wright, Family Networks Co-Ordinator on 0845 458 8170 or email familynetworks@wellchild.org.uk
