Helium believes that nurtured imagination is fundamental to a child's well-being and is striving to create a cultural shift within health systems to honour all creativity as a valuable and limitless resource.

Helium is passionate about creating opportunities for children to engage with the arts and develop their own creativity through working with professional artists. The company recognizes the powerful effect arts engagement can have on society and the difference it can make to marginalized children.

With your help, Helium can reach its aim to reach children in every hospital in Ireland.


Ways to help

Helium will work with over 500 children in 2011.
Can you help just 8 to access Helium’s programmes for a year?

An investment of €400 can help Helium make a difference in the lives of 8 children and their families in the healthcare system through the delivery of innovative arts programmes that places the child at the core of the work.

Children in hospital can feel isolated, helpless and sad. That’s why Helium has developed exceptional arts experiences that have the power to transform a child’s experience of hospitalization.

Your €400 will pay for 8 children to take part in Helium’s programmes
