We’ll again be matching all donations so whatever you donate, we’ll donate the same, doubling the total amount raised for the charity.

About 2wish

2wish offer support for those affected by sudden death in young people. When a family loses a child or young adult the effects are devastating for all who knew and loved them.

Our mission is to ensure that all those affected by the sudden and traumatic death of a child or a young adult aged 25 or under throughout Wales receive the support they deserve.

Read Jane’s Story

On the 23rd of July 2020 our world fell apart and the sky caved in. That sounds awfully dramatic but it is exactly what happened. In those days, weeks, months and now years, simply putting one foot in front of the other became the biggest challenge of everyday. Within the shortest time we were speaking to Becky from 2 Wish Upon a Star, who was there to help us navigate those dark days. They provided trauma counselling for the whole family and anyone who was affected by Llyr's death including his friends. Each young death affects up to 105 people and they are there to support any of those who need help. What a massive undertaking. Please support them.

2wish Memory Boxes

Containing two elephants, one stays with the lost loved one, and one stays with the family. Elephants are an important part of our charity ethos, and will always continue to be so, as elephants never forget, and neither do 2wish. This box is given to families following on from the unimaginable, preserving precious memories forever more.
