June 2024 Newsletter
It's been a busy time for Mummy's Wish, with 92 mums registering for our service in May alone - equivalent to about three every single day. When a mum with cancer reaches out to us, we provide practical support like helping pay for cleaning or healthy cooked meals, as well as someone to listen and connect mums with other services. We also send out a care pack to each new mum who registers with us, including information, books and our much-loved Comfort Bears with recordable hearts.
