What do you do? 
Wallace & Gromit’s Children’s Foundation raises money to support children in hospitals and hospices throughout the UK.  We are committed to improving the quality of life for children in hospitals and hospices and we give away a wide range of grants every year. We raise money through Corporate Partnerships and our two national fundraising events: Wrong Trousers' Day and The Great British Tea Party!

Where is my money spent? 
The  Foundation supports a variety of projects in children’s hospitals and hospices around the country. Since 2003 we have helped 48 hospitals and hospices with funding.

The list of hospitals and hospices who have been awarded grants can be found here: All beneficiaries
