The Little Ted Foundation was set up following the loss of our beautiful baby boy, Ted, to cancer in April 2022. He was just 16 months old. We draw from our own experience for the duration of Ted's illness, and as bereaved parents to offer much needed support to other families in the same position. Find out more here.
We provide four grants and breaks to help support bereaved families and those with seriously ill children.
Whether you would like to relax by the beach, spend time enjoying the countryside or walk mountain trails, The Little Ted Foundation are able to offer you a break to suit your needs, offering you time to relax time, away from the stresses and strains of home life.

The costs associated with being in hospital & caring for a seriously ill child quickly build up. Unexpected costs such as food, car parking & additional fuel, all coming at a time when finances are often already stretched, add further stresses during such worrying times for parents. Our Help in Hospital Grants are available to help alleviate some of the financial pressures associated with a child's stay in hospital of 10 days or more, and likely to remain an inpatient for some time

We are proud to be able to offer families caring for a seriously ill child a grant to pay for a special trip or day out together. Families are often separated for weeks, sometimes months, when a child is seriously ill in hospital. When treatment allows, it is important for them to make the most of every moment together. With our Memory Maker Grants, our aim is to help as many families as possible create priceless memories.
