About Caudwell Children:
To date Caudwell Children has donated over £12 million to thousands of children with 300 medical conditions. The Charity is committed to changing the lives of children by providing individual donations of specialist equipment, treatment and therapy as well as its annual ‘Destination Dreams’ holiday for families coping with a child’s terminal illness.
Caudwell Children was registered in March 2000 and is widely recognised as one of the country’s fastest growing children’s charities. Since its inception the charity has doubled every pound raised, achieved through supplier partnerships, which means every pound donated works even harder.
The Charity was founded by entrepreneur, John Caudwell, whose vision was to create a sustainable children’s charity that offered benefactors’ transparency and peace of mind that 100% of their donation was being used to directly change children’s lives.
By donating the cost of the Charity’s annual management and administration overheads, John has guaranteed an efficient way for individuals and businesses to change the lives of thousands of sick and disabled children living in the UK.
John Caudwell remains the Charity’s largest benefactor and sits as Chairman of the Board of Trustees.
The Charity’s ambassadors include Hollywood actress and author, Joan Collins, actress Elizabeth
Hurley, Rod and Penny Stewart, Bruce Forsyth and singer, Robbie Williams
“We are transforming the iconic Stourbridge landmark into the West Midlands’ leading entertainment venue with big artists and celebrity D.J’s, making the new look picture house the place to be.
Whilst becoming a number one venue in the area, we also aim to give something back so we will be donating to a nominated charity every time we open our doors. For the opening weekend monies will be going to Caudwell Children.”
Mark Brewer, Promotions Manager for Desire.
