🎉 Today, the WISH team celebrated a huge milestone!

Thanks to the incredible support of The National Lottery—who not only makes funding easy to access but actively supports charities like WISH—we’re able to turn our ideas into impactful sessions and events for our community. Alongside Action Together, this support is helping us create a brighter future for our children.

Our team has been working tirelessly—planning, organizing, and pouring creativity and dedication into every session. Families and carers, your ideas and feedback continue to guide us, and we can’t wait to share the amazing experiences we’ve been preparing! ✨

Heartfelt appreciation and congratulations to Action Together and Tameside Council for providing such a wonderful platform for WISH and many inspiring women-led businesses to come together this International Women’s Day.

The “Give to Gain” theme truly captured the spirit of supporting and uplifting one another. It was inspiring to see so many women connect, share, and touch so many hearts through this meaningful event.

Thank you for creating a space that celebrates and empowers women in our community.
