Request a dream
As can be seen from the growing list of dreams that The Dream Factory has already made come true, we are only limited by the imagination of the Dream recipient and, perhaps, some medical constraints.
We aim to do everything possible to grant a Dream. No Dream is too small; once we have said “Yes” then anything is possible. If you know a suitable child or young person who has a Dream which you would like The Dream Factory to make come true, then please get in touch with us and make an initial application.
Please note that The Dream Factory grants dreams within approximately 70 miles of the Chigwell & Hainault area. We can only grant a dream to a child or young adult that hasn’t already had a dream. They must be between three to twenty five years of age and suffer from either a life threatening or life limiting condition
Currently we are working hard delivering dreams and any new requests may not be fulfilled for 8 – 12 months
If you would like to make an urgent request for someone nearing their end of life, please contact us.
What happens next
Once we receive your request, we will get in touch with you as soon as possible. If we think we can help, we will arrange to meet you, the young person and their parent or guardian to carry out a confidential assessment.
This will mean getting some detailed information about the Dream recipient, their medical condition and anything else that may help us decide if and how we can make the Dream come true. If necessary, and with the permission of the parents or guardian, we will ask our Medical Advisor, Dr Rory McCrea, to contact the health professionals who are familiar with the young person’s condition. Hopefully, everything will meet our criteria and The Dream Factory will start work on making your Dream come true.
The parents or guardian will be consulted at all stages while we plan the Dream.
