The Barrie Wells Trust ‘Box4Kids’ initiative enables families raising a disabled or seriously ill child, to enjoy a special day out and make unforgettable memories.

Barrie Wells Trust work with executive box holders who donate their box for an event. Then offer them out to create VIP experiences for disabled children and their families. Events range from Premier League Football, entertainment shows and a day at the races to name a few.
