This week, Newstalk is partnering with Make-A-Wish Ireland to celebrate Wish Week. Join us all week as we talk to some incredible children and their courageous families, and hear how Make-A-Wish Ireland have been beacons of light for children facing the toughest battles of their lives.

Speaking to Anton this morning Natasha, mum of Sydney who has STXBP1 encephalopathy. Sydney’s wish was to be a zookeeper which Make A Wish was able to make happen.

Make-A-Wish Ireland is dependent on the generosity of the public. You can donate online at makeawish.ie/donate.
