Can you help save a bairns life?
Thank you so much for visiting.
Did you know that when we started, only 6 in 10 children survived immune disorders? Thanks to decades of support from people like you, alongside our research and treatment advances, that has improved to a 9 in 10 survival rate today.
But we’re not finished yet. As a small charity, we have to be careful and tactical with every pound, and we’re proud of how far we make it go. We often help kickstart research that later attracts millions in further funding, meaning your £10 and Gift-Aid can go a very long way.
Your donations truly make difference
Right here in the North-East , children with life-threatening immune conditions are fighting for their lives at the Great North Children’s Hospital in the RVI. They are isolated in their cubicle room for months at a time. Little Vinnie spent 157 days in his.
The Bubble Foundation supports these children and their families when they need it most, but we cannot do that without you.
Fighting for children like...

Diagnosed with HLH (Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis) at one month old | See more
XLP1 | See more
Transplant at 8 months | See more
Imagine being isolated in a hospital room for months at a time, not being able to see friends or loved ones. Your support helps The Bubble Foundation research treatments and fund life saving equipment as well as toys and games for patients with life-threatening immune deficiencies.
