Make-A-Wish® Ireland has one simple aim - to grant the wishes of children aged between 3 and 17 years living with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. A wish granted is true magic for the child, providing respite from their normal routines of hospitals, doctors and treatment. Since inception in 1992 they have granted over 2,000 wishes in Ireland. They believe a wish can have a lasting impact on a child's life. A wish can create moments of joy - and memories that last a life-time.

This Christmas, thousands of people will gather at Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services, Harold’s Cross for the annual Light Up A Life Christmas event.

The celebrations begin on Sunday 26^th November, a day of music and memories and the official lighting of the magnificent tree by the guest of honour Daniel O’Donnell, and will continue until Christmas.

Rosie & Jim are delighted to donate €1000 to the Light up a Life Christmas event.
