The Willow Foundation is for young adults living with life limiting and life threatening conditions.
They are committed to making a difference to the lives of those young people at a time when they, and their families, most need an escape from the day-to-day problems that serious illness brings with it.
The Willow Foundation is dedicated to giving "Special Days" to seriously ill young adults aged between 16 and 40.
Examples of special days are:
- Treatment with a beauty therapist
- Day at a health farm
- A visit to a pop concert or football match
- A night at the theatre
- A weekend break
Any request, however imaginative, is considered, and the Foundation does its best to make that request a reality. Full guidelines available on request.
