Posted 17th May 2024

Funstation continues their long-standing partnership with Rays of Sunshine, a charity dedicated to brightening the lives of seriously ill children by granting magical wishes. Funstation has been a continual supporter and fundraiser for Rays of Sunshine and the wonderful work they do.

On Wednesday, 29th May Funstation is hosting an unforgettable VIP Day at Xscape, Milton Keynes for Rays of Sunshine ‘wish’ families from the local area.

James Miller, Managing Director at Funstation explains the purpose behind the partnership, “Funstation is dedicated to creating fun and memories for families and friends spending time together. By supporting Rays of Sunshine, we can help them grant magical wishes to brighten the lives of other families too”.

Held in collaboration with Xscape MK, this VIP Day warmly invites families that have previously been granted wishes by Rays of Sunshine and promises a lineup of family-fun related activities designed to make lasting memories and highlight the amazing work carried out by Rays of Sunshine.

Throughout the day, the VIPs will enjoy a variety of experiences, including adventure golf, digital darts and karaoke at Volcano Falls, in addition to carnival, video and immersive VR games at Funstation. To round up the day, the families will have the opportunity to enjoy other exciting activities within Xscape.

Amy Chambers, Director of Fundraising and Communications at Rays of Sunshine, showcases her heartfelt gratitude, saying: “Funstation have been a great supporter in our journey for over a decade. Their amazing support helps us to grant countless magical wishes, bringing hope and happiness to children and their families during difficult times. We extend our deepest appreciation to the team at Funstation for organising a VIP for our wonderful wish families.”

Dan Murphy, Centre Director at Xscape Milton Keynes, says, “We’re delighted to be hosting a VIP Day with Funstation for children who have been touched by Rays of Sunshine. The charity grants magical wishes every day to seriously ill children in a bid to offer something
positive for them to focus on. Here at Xscape, we’re keen to replicate this with a fun-filled day out, providing an opportunity for the children to experience all Xscape has to offer, and create an unforgettable day out.”

Funstation are welcoming the new Mayor of Milton Keynes, Councillor Marie Bradburn and Local MP Ben Everitt on the VIP day to help present a cheque donation to Rays Of Sunshine’s CEO, Dan Assor. This contribution supports their ‘Tickets2Wishes’ campaign, aimed to grant more magical wishes for families to cherish.

In addition to the VIP Day, Funstation are celebrating the relaunch of the Tickets2Wishes campaign in aid of Rays of Sunshine. To donate come down to Funstation, play the games and gift your unused prize points at the Prize Counter, Funstation will then match the amount and convert into wishes.
