This handy guide is written by Rachael who has been a volunteer Wish Visitor with Make-A-Wish since November and has visited 11 families so far, either at home or in hospital, to delve into what their One True Wish might be.
Here, she gives some advice to those about to choose their wish. Firstly, your Wish Visitor will phone you to discuss when they can visit in person, with a colleague, so think about your availability.
Are weekdays or weekends better? Are there any activities or appointments booked for certain days? Finding a date and time when you are free each week will help to speed up the process. The two Wish Visitors will have agreed their own availability with each other before calling you. Now, onto the fun part To start you thinking, here are the four key types of wishes we are asked to grant most often:.
Is there someone or something you've always wanted to be? This could be anything from a superhero or a princess, to a train driver or pilot. What do you want to do when you get there? How can we make it super special? It could be an electronic item e. Xbox , relaxation equipment e.
Where possible, we usually ask you to choose a primary wish and a back-up wish. The back-up is kept in reserve in case, for any reason, the first option is not achievable. This may happen if, for instance, the celebrity you wish to meet is on tour for a long time. If the fulfilment of a wish must be delayed for any reason, the wish child and family are fully informed, and the wish child is given the option to either make another wish request or wait.
In most cases, wishes are delivered within a year. However, it is not easy to specify how long it takes for the Wish Journey. In some circumstances, wishes can be delivered in a matter of hours or days, while in most cases, it can take months or even years.
All wish children have a critical-illnesses. Our job is to make the impossible possible, so it is a very rare occurrence that we cannot create an appropriate experience for a child in line with their one true wish.
If a child's original wish cannot be granted due to health reasons or other circumstances beyond our control, we will work with the child to identify another wish. Every wish is as unique and special as each child and is only limited by the child's imagination. From going on scary rides with dad or creating magical memories with family members, to princess playhouses, tree huts, bedroom makeovers, meeting celebrities, pets, spas, family holidays or swimming with dolphins, our aim is always to uncover the one true wish.
