"The FAB® lollies were a major success at Rainbow House last summer - they certainly raised a few smiles amongst the children and the dads alike!! I’m delighted to hear that we’ll be receiving more this summer too - let’s hope that we have the weather to enjoy them too!"
Pat Keown, House Manager at Rainbow House
Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity provides practical and emotional support to families who have a child with a life threatening or terminal illness. They support 1,000 families each year.
Rainbow Trust’s Family Support Workers join the family in their own home and are there to provide whatever practical support is needed. They may attend hospital appointments with parents, sit by the bedside of the sick child to give parents a break or take worried siblings out for the day.
The charity’s two respite houses in Surrey and Northumberland provide a break for the whole family, allowing them to spend precious time together as a family.
Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity supports families for as long as they need it – from diagnosis, through the illness and beyond.

How you can help FAB® help the Rainbow Trust Children's Charity...
FAB® will donate £1 for every entry submitted to the Design-A-FAB®-Den (to a maximum of £20k). The Charity itself will be involving their children who will be designing their own Den. Some of the donation fund will be spent on building Dens with FAB® at the Rainbow Trust Children's Charity respite homes providing an enduring fun filled Den for the children to enjoy.
Here’s what some of the Rainbow Trust families think of our relationship...
"It’s always a treat to go to Rainbow House and it was made extra special last summer when the FAB® lollies that were on tap!! Our children simply couldn’t believe their luck!! Whenever they ask about Rainbow House now, it’s always the same question; when are we going again and will there be the lovely lollies too!"
