Because of Josie’s own experience she understood exactly what was needed.
The cash gift gives young people a sense of independence as they can spend the money as they wish. This is particularly important for teenagers who have been unable to earn there own money.
Often these children are unable to travel far from hospital or home and so an organized trip is out the question. This money just gives them the extra cash to spend on something they have always wanted.
Nobody knows how long these children may have, time is precious and every day counts.
With this in mind the application for a cash gift comes directly from the Macmillan Nurse or the Clic Sargent social worker caring for the child. Because of their direct involvement there is no need for board meetings or references from doctors to hold the process up.
