Brightening the days of hospitalised and seriously ill children through positive handmade cards.
About us
Cards for Bravery is a charity dedicated to brightening the days of hospitalised and seriously ill children, mainly through the distribution of handmade cards. We do this by creating cards through our various volunteers situated around the globe and distributing these cards to more than 20 hospitals, hospices and CAMHS Units across the UK. As well as this, we provide other services such as Activity Packs, so children have fun activities to do during lengthy hospital stays and Bravery Packages, care packages tailored to an individual child so they know someone is thinking of them.

This week marks Play in Healthcare Week! 🎈✨This years theme is ‘Celebrating Play’ and at Cards for Bravery, we know that play is more than just fun—it's vital for both the physical and mental wellbeing of hospitalised children. Engaging in play helps reduce stress, promotes emotional well-being, and fosters connections among children and their families. In a hospital setting, where everything can feel overwhelming, moments of joy can make a world of difference. Through our services such as Activity packs, we try to provide opportunities for distraction and creativity, giving children a little bit of joy in difficult times. Join us in spreading the message that play is vital to happiness! Together, we can bring smiles to the faces of young patients and support their wellbeing. 💖 #PIHW #PlayInHealthcareWeek #PIHW2024 #CardsForBravery
