What an incredible start to the year Matty, Dave and Nitrous MX & Car Competitions have had. Since January 1st 2020 they have already raised £8045.00. This is a truly incredible amount for the Charity and has been used towards granting the wishes of many poorly, local children.
Matty and Dave work tirelessly, up and down the country, supporting our Charity enabling us to grant the children’s wishes and we cannot thank them enough for everything they do for us.
To everyone who has supported Matty, Dave and Nitrous MX & Car Competitions THANK YOU.
The biggest thanks of course come from all of the children and families that you have helped. We are so very grateful for your continued support, we could not grant these children’s wishes without you!

Wishes 4 Kids are enormously proud and honoured to be the benefitting chosen Charity of Ross Greaves who is a good friend and a huge supporter.
Ross is taking part in a Charity Fight Night which is taking place at The Athena, Leicester on Saturday 29th February.
Ross has been training extremely hard since last November and everybody that knows Ross is so proud of him for the commitment and dedication that he has shown.
The event has been sold out for many weeks and we cannot thank everyone who has supported Ross enough for all of their kindness in helping him to raise such a huge amount of money for our Charity. Your wonderful support has meant that many more poorly children will be able to have their wishes granted.
Everyone at the Charity wishes Ross all the very best on Saturday as would all of the children and families that he will be helping. We are so very proud of you. Good luck Ross.
