Imagine never having been able to go on holiday, or having time away with your family.
That’s the reality for 16% of families in the UK — and for 61% of the families we support. We exist for one simple reason: to give holidays to families facing some of life’s toughest challenges.
A holiday is more than time away. It’s time together. It means laughter instead of worry, and memories instead of stress. It’s a chance for families to feel closer, stronger, and more hopeful about what comes next.
A gift in your Will has the power to make these moments happen.

How gifts in Wills make a difference
Memories made on holiday last a lifetime – the little moments keep families smiling and offer shared memories to keep coming back to, even when times are more difficult.
Gifts in Wills fund a large proportion of our work. They’re not just donations— they’re a lifeline. They help a young carer to feel like a child again, a mum with mental health difficulties enjoy new experiences, or a family to come home closer and more resilient. By leaving a gift to Family Holiday Charity, you’re directly supporting our work — giving families the chance to step away from daily struggles and create lasting memories together.
