Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity

Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity was founded by Roald Dahl’s widow Dame Felicity Dahl, shortly after his death in 1991.
Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity provides specialist nurses and support for seriously ill children across the UK.
Currently, over 250 Roald Dahl Nurses care for more than 50,000 children living with complex, lifelong conditions. But many more children still do not
receive this vital specialist care.
For many families, the road to diagnosis is complex and uncertain, juggling hospital visits, managing medications, and navigating treatments and tests.
They are often under the care of multiple specialists, across different hospitals.
Roald Dahl Nurses are a vital lifeline to the whole family, coordinating care and providing access to emotional support. They help families feel less
overwhelmed and isolated and more in control.
That’s why we believe every seriously ill child deserves a Roald Dahl Nurse.
