KRISTEL - FOUNDER OF MITCHELL'S MIRACLESI founded Mitchell's Miracles charity on the 4th July 2013 in legacy of our son Mitchell Huth. My previous background was working in the travel industry. My focus in life is to make a huge difference to families affected by Neuroblastoma and to raise awareness of the condition to people across the UK.

JADE - CORPORATE FUNDRAISERI love working for Mitchell's Miracles as a Corporate Fundraiser; I know that I can help families who need it the most and it's very rewarding. The charity is small so the focus is on who we help. The story behind Mitchell's Miracles makes me think how lucky I am and I want to make an impact in some way.

Working as the Emotional Support worker is a really rewarding job! I have wanted to work for Kristel for years and when I was offered the opportunity, I was really excited and felt honoured. The work that Kristel has done to support families and raise awareness of Neuroblastoma is incredible and she genuinely inspires me (and many others) every day. Mitchell's Miracles is a very special charity and I love being part of it and making a difference.

Working as the Trusts and Funding Officer and I believe in everything the charity stands for. Kristel is a big part of this and when you work for her, you feel as if you're working for Mitchell. It's a nice responsibility to have. I feel like we're working to preserve Mitchell's legacy and all our work has a real purpose for supporting the families we work with, and that's an incredibly important feeling to have. Our Neuroblastoma charity does great work and I'm thrilled to be a member of this great team.

Our MissionOur mission is two-fold. Firstly, we want to raise awareness amongst the local and UK population about the early signs and symptoms of childhood cancer Neuroblastoma. Early detection of Neuroblastoma means that a child has a greater chance of survival, if diagnosed early. We also want to reduce the number of cases that are missed every year.
Secondly, it is our aim to be one of the best kid’s charities for childhood cancer in the UK. Raising vital funds to support families (emotionally and financially), whilst their child is receiving medical care, is a lifeline that helps families stay afloat and survive their journey. Our purpose is to give them one less thing to worry about and focus instead on what matters; taking care of their child and themselves. |
