When I co-founded Must Have Ideas in 2018, I knew I wanted it to be more than just a 'normal' business.
Of course we need to make a profit. But I wanted to do more than that.
I also wanted to make sure we created a great environment for our team and I wanted to give back to the community, too.
That’s why I am so pleased to announce our official partnership with the incredible Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity.
Most of us will know someone who’s life has been touched by GOSH.
We know someone, too.
Jake spent the first week’s of his life under constant care at GOSH
One of our amazing MHI team members here, Liam, has personal experience of Great Ormond Street Hospital.
When his beautiful twin boys were born in 2014, one of them, Jake, was born with heart difficulties.
Jake was rushed to GOSH and lovingly cared for by the incredible doctors and nurses there.
At just 6 months old, Jake returned to Great Ormond Street to undergo a complex 4 hour open-heart surgery operation.

Jake has made a full recovery and leads a happy, healthy life thanks to Great Ormond Street

The operation was a success and, thanks to the skilful hard work and dedicated care from the GOSH team, Jake made a full recovery and was able to go home.
I’m delighted to say that Jake is now 7 year’s old and is a happy, healthy, cheeky little boy with a real zest for life.
I know that Liam, and his wife Kim, will always be eternally grateful for the world-leading care that Jake received in his first few precious weeks of life.
If it wasn’t for Great Ormond Street, things could have turned out very differently.

There are too many stories like Jake’s. And sadly, not all of the children make it.
On average, five children lose their lives everyday to a rare disease that we don’t yet fully understand.
So we want to do our small bit to support research into complex childhood illnesses and to help GOSH
get closer to achieving more of the pioneering medical breakthroughs they have become so famous for.
That’s why we have teamed up with the Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity
to raise as much money as we can to support their vital work.
Our team will be taking part in various money-raising activities throughout the year.
Plus, Must Have Ideas will be contributing directly, too, by donating a proportion of our profits.
And, if you don’t mind, we may reach out to you, our amazing customers, every now and again to ask for your donations, too.
If you would like to donate today, you can do so below. Just select your donation amount
and press the green button to be taken to checkout to make your donation. Thank you.
Every penny you donate goes straight to the GOSH Charity to support their life-changing work.
