According to a recent poll, conducted as part of this year’s Children’s Hospice Week hero campaign (14-21 May), invisibility is the nation’s most envied super power (32%), closely followed by flying (21%). Superman was also named as the UK’s favourite superhero.
The superhero survey was commissioned by Children’s Hospices UK to help raise awareness of the services available to children not expected to reach adulthood and their families. Just like superheroes, children’s hospices are there for people when they need them most. Children’s Hospices UK is calling on you to be a hero in Children’s Hospice Week and help raise funds for these vital services.
Some of the more interesting superpowers people would like to have include, the ability to cure illness, immortality, time travel and physic powers.
You can get involved in Children’s Hospice Week by taking part in Superhero Friday (20 May) a special day of hero inspired fundraising activities. Why not dress up as a superhero and make a donation Keech Hospice Care? Get your friends, family and work colleagues involved and see who can come up with the best outfit!
