Non-profit community interest company wishesjust4you is calling on printers, packaging companies, carton manufacturers and paper merchants to donate surplus art and print materials to help support its mission.
Founded by Bill Stillman, former managing director of Swan Packaging, wishesjust4you provides art experiences to children facing significant health challenges, offering them a creative outlet for self-expression, engagement, and memory-making. The organisation works closely with children’s hospices, SEND Schools, and NHS nursing teams across the UK to reach as many children as possible.
The organisation is imploring those in the industry to repurpose any unused materials for this cause, and welcomes donations of clean, reusable materials, including but not limited to A2 / A3 paper, card, and board; fabric, foam board, bubble wrap; and any surplus art supplies.
‘These materials can bring so much joy and creativity into the lives of children facing unimaginable challenges,’ said Mr Stillman, ‘By donating surplus supplies, businesses can directly contribute to meaningful, hands-on experiences that brighten these children’s days.’
Those wishing to donate can contact Mr Stillman through his email, bill@wishesjust4you.co.uk; or phone number, 0734 2945690.
