What changes when a child becomes their own hero.
Care teams, families, the children themselves and the press have told us what they saw. This is what they said, and who makes it happen.
After experiencing such a Superhope, we see a new lease of life in the children. If someone's able to willingly engage in something because their mood is better, it also means their recovery is significantly better too.
Nurse Manager, Butterfly Ward, Great Ormond Street Hospital
I do think that a project like Superhope should be in every hospital as an integral part of our care.
Consultant Paediatric Oncologist, Great Ormond Street Hospital
I think when other people around them find it difficult to inspire them, we need to find a way that they are able to inspire themselves.
Psychologist, Great Ormond Street Hospital
Where maybe a lot of decisions are being made for them, Superhope's an opportunity where they can take that bit of power back.
Play Specialist, Great Ormond Street Hospital
The Superhope initiative has had a very positive effect on Latifa and our whole family. She became a butterfly queen, very beautiful!
ButterFly’s family
It is a beautiful initiative for us, and Retaj was so excited and happy! She felt so proud that she could be an ice princess and she kept talking about that for several days.
ReFroze’s family
Tap to hear them.
The power of the imagination knows no boundaries.
A new era for the world of superheroes.
