About Us
Make a Smile is a registered charity that provides enrichment to children in hospitals and children facing disadvantages in the community such as disability and deprivation. This is primarily done through the medium of character visits (think superheroes and princesses).
We have a range of opportunities for volunteers including Trustees, committee members, characters and magic makers (help out of costume).
