Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity
Ada's Story

Film & Campaign Description

Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity provides specialist nurses and support for seriously ill children. There are currently over 150 Road Dahl Nurses caring for more than 36,000 seriously ill children, but there are still too many children with serious illnesses who do not receive this vital specialist care.

Roald Dahl Nurses are trained and dedicated experts in their field. They are a consistent presence in the child’s life from initial diagnosis through to the child’s transition to adult services. They advise, they reassure, and they become an extended part of the family. The dedication and expertise of Roald Dahl Nurses reduces A&E visits, hospital admissions and consultant appointments. They’re also a vital lifeline to the whole family, coordinating care and providing access to high quality emotional support.

In Ada's Story, we meet Ada and her family, who received life changing care from their Roald Dahl Nurse Lucy. This film is in loving memory of Ada.

Please take a few minutes to watch the full film and vote to support our work. A special thank you to Ada’s family for sharing their story and supporting our work to establish more Roald Dahl Nurses.

We believe every seriously ill child deserves a Roald Dahl Nurse. To find out more about our charity please visit www.roalddahlcharity.org
