Now it is time for readers to support the campaign and buy the special wrapping paper at The Works stores nationwide, or online at theworks.co.uk.
Ashley and Safiyya know what it is like having a sick child in hospital.
Their little girl Azaylia was just two months old in October 2020 when she was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia, an aggressive form of the disease.
Tragically she passed away six months later, and her parents set up The Azaylia Foundation in her memory.
Now the proceeds from our campaign will go towards funding for new childhood cancer specialists via the Foundation.
Last night Safiyya said: “This Christmas we would love to see everyone’s presents wrapped with paper designed by children.
“Through this simple action, we will bring joy to children spending Christmas in hospitals, while at the same time helping to fund the next generation of childhood cancer specialists and their crucial research into this terrible disease.â€
