initially set up as a response to the additional pressures placed on families during the pandemic, The Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity's Marvellous Family Support Service helps families access financial benefits that they need to meet the costs of caring for a seriously ill child.
Roald Dahl Specialist Nurses work with children, young people and their families across the health and social care system, from primary to tertiary care, bringing in social care and community support, third-party equipment providers, education, housing and mental health and wellbeing services.
There are 80 Roald Dahl Specialist Nurses in the UK, employed by the NHS and part-funded through the charity. They care for children and young people aged 0-25 who are living with life-long conditions such as epilepsy, neurodegenerative disorders, sickle cell anaemia, and rare or undiagnosed genetic conditions.
Thanks to a significant grant from our Assura Community Fund, Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity partnered with Citizens Advice Cardiff & Vale to add financial and welfare benefits advice for families.
