Overview

Since our first annual Orlando trip in 1987, we have placed deserving children at the heart of everything we do. More than 6,000 children later, we continue to bring fun, independence and confidence to young people with a serious illness or disability.

We know that Dreamflight provides the opportunity for children to develop independence, build their self-confidence and gain a new outlook on life. Many Dreamflight children return from the trip and start to look past their illness or disability for the first time.

Over 6,400 children have been on their Dreamflight since 1987

192 children are supported each year

91% of the children on our last trip thought the trip was 'excellent'

Almost three quarters felt less anxious than before the trip

Over two thirds felt more able to do things for themselves

98% felt more confident to try new things

GBP1,546,318 was raised in 2022-2023 (GBP423,182 in 2021-2022 due to the pandemic)

Dreamflight is helped by 200+ regular volunteers

In all of the recent Paralympic Games, the medal-winners have included former Dreamflight children
