Make A Wish grant life-changing wishes for children with critical medical conditions.  In fact, 229 wishes were granted last year and there have been over 3,600 since it all started at Make Wish almost 35 years ago  

A wish can be a turning point in a childhood illness bringing hope, magic, strength, and happiness for an entire family.   Lynne O’Donnell joined Claire in studio to talk about her experience with Make a Wish which helped her son Conor and family.

Let’s make 2026 the biggest Wish Week yet. Every cent matters. Donate online at makeawish.ie/donate.
