What the charity does

Maddi's Butterflies aims to ease the suffering of children undergoing cancer treatment, by providing small wishes and gifts. We also provide holidays to families affected by childhood cancer, in our caravan at Ribby Hall Village. We are based in Blackburn, but we do take referrals nationally. Children are referred to us via 3rd party charities, such as Clic Sargant or Macmillan.
