**from childhood cancers and histiocytosis and support**
**these children through the provision of gifts and activities**
**to enhance their physical, emotional and psychological**
**health, ease suffering and provide comfort.**
**We also raise awareness about childhood cancer, in**

**information to families.**| |Summary of the main activities
in relation to those purposes for
the public benefit, in particular,
the activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.|Para 1.17 and
1.19|**We have not had any activity this year but have in the**
**background worked on a soft toy gifting initiative for**
**children on the cancer ward. We collaborated with**
**Leicester Royal Infirmary Ward 27 to trial our soft toy with**
**great feedback from the Play Team regarding how the soft**
**toy can be used to promote mental, physical and**
**emotional well being.**
**We plan to promote and donate further soft toys**
**nationwide in 2024.**
**We also continued to post out our Super Gift boxes as**
**requested by families with children who have cancer. This**
**has proven to be most successful in providing comfort**
**during treatment.**
**We have continued to raise awareness by sharing our**
**personal story about histiocytosis and created leaflets**
**and charity fundraising packs which will be used to**
**distribute to fundraisers and businesses to gain further**
**support and awareness.**| |Statement confirming whether

**therapy. The play team expressed such great feedback**
**and want to use it throughout the children’s hospital.**
**The interest in our soft toy has been widespread and the**
**demand has exceeding what we expected meaning that**
