Making Dreams Come True This Christmas with The Dream Factory
)
Ideal Home Show Christmas is proud to welcome a truly inspiring organisation as our official charity partner for 2025 – The Dream Factory.
Founded in 2008 by Avril Mills BEM in memory of her son Oliver, The Dream Factory is a charity that creates unforgettable moments of joy by granting dreams to children and young adults with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions. Whether it's meeting a favourite celebrity, enjoying a dream day out, or receiving a special gift, every dream granted offers hope and happiness during incredibly difficult times.
Fundraising to help grant dreams - A Walk to Remember: The Three Stadium Challenge
On Sunday 8th June, some of the Ideal Home Show team and their colleagues joined fellow fundraisers to take on the Three Stadium Walk, an inspiring 11-mile route connecting three of London’s most iconic football stadiums: West Ham’s London Stadium, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium. Thanks to everyone's hard work, enthusiasm, and generosity, the event raised over £6,500—directly helping to turn dreams into reality for children and young people in need.
A Year-Round Mission of Magic
Behind every dream granted is a passionate team of volunteers, supporters, and celebrity patrons who work tirelessly to spread joy. From bake sales and quiz nights to charity runs, glamorous gala dinners, and themed fundraisers like Bollywood Nights and Halloween Fests, The Dream Factory’s events calendar is as lively as it is heart-warming. Each event helps raise essential funds to continue their life-changing mission, and every bit of support helps make dreams a reality.
