Why we need Superheroes
We all hope to give our children the best start in life – to support
them, take care of them emotionally and help them grow.
What then happens to our family when one parent dies? When
they have taken their own life or been given the devastating news
of a terminal illness?
Finding the words to explain this to a young, vulnerable child is almost impossible, which is
why an organisation such as Beechwood Cancer Care is so important.
Beechwood Cancer Care find the words to help to put a child’s life back together. Their
family counsellors work with children and young people to help them through the illness or
bereavement of a parent or sibling; keeping communication open and working through the
anger, frustration and devastation which this very difficult time can bring.
Beechwood is a free service that supports families at the point of need across Greater
Manchester. Their service is currently stretched to capacity, seeing over 100 children a year.
With your invaluable help however, this number could be doubled.
Life is unpredictable - if you’re lucky enough not to have had devastation affect your family,
it is easy to forget about services such as Beechwood. Regardless of this, the importance
and impact they have in rebuilding a families life after a terminal diagnosis or the loss of a
loved one goes beyond words.

Caroline, mum of 2,
from Marple
“None of us are prepared
for anything in life but
you are definitely not
prepared for your partner
dying and leaving you
with three children.”
“Coming to Beechwood
gave me somebody there
I could let my feelings
out to. I can’t be normal,
and that’s something that
eats at me, but I can talk
about it here.”
“My main concern was
how do I tell my children
that I have cancer.
They were just too young
and wouldn’t have
understood. How can
a mum tell her children
there is a possibility that
she might die?”
Beechwood was Matt’s safety
net. In Beechwood, Matt had
someone in whom he could trust
his three children to confide in,
someone to deal with all their
questions and fears.
Daniel’s mum was murdered
when he was just three years
old. He was too young to
understand why his mum was
not there when he came home
from nursery. When Daniel’s
frustrations became too much,
he considered running away.
Beechwood have since helped
explain to Daniel that his Mum
didn’t leave because she wanted
too, but because of reasons that
were out of her control - talking
Daniel through the things that
bother him and helping him find
comfort.
Caroline felt like it would have
been impossible to break the
devastating news to her young
children. The counsellors at
Beechwood supported Caroline
through this process, helping
phrase the dialogue in a way
her children could comprehend.
Thanks to Beechwood, this was
one less worry for Caroline.

Join our
league of
Superheroes
This is your chance to step up for
Cash for Kids, reveal the superhero
in you or your company and make
a real difference to local children.
You can hold a super quiz, a pancake breakfast, or run a superhero dress up day
at your school or nursery. Maybe do a superhero challenge and get sponsored by
your family and friends.
Take a look at our “above and beyond” fundraising ideas (Page 8).
The wackier your idea, the better and no contribution is too small - working together
we can make a huge difference. Your activity can take place at any time, but ideally
between 11th and 15th May. We might even be able to come and see you so let us
know how you are getting involved by emailing: cashforkids@key103.co.uk

Memory Wall
Creating your memory wall…
A great way to help raise money is to build
your very own butterfly wall of memories.
The butterfly symbolises transformation, joy and hope – a great thing to fill your office or
workplace with!
All you need to do is set up a designated area and encourage colleagues to purchase their
butterflies for £2 or any donation they can afford. Ask people to write down their own
memories of lost loved ones and add it to the beautiful wall of remembrance.
The more memories added to the wall, the closer we are to reaching our goal of providing
the best support to bereaved children across Greater Manchester.

Top Five Fundraisers
for Schools:
Students and teachers vote to decide
with donations, the choice with most
donations wins the vote. It could be
a vote to decide on what task the
volunteer will receive, like a pie in the
face, bean bath or ice bath, or vote
which volunteer has to do the
undesirable action.
