Dreamflight Day 2027

Bake it, share it, and help create unforgettable memories for children who need them most

Dreamflight Day takes place on Thursday 13 May 2027 and is one of our favourite moments of the year. A bright, joyful celebration where supporters across the UK and beyond come together to bake, nibble, sprinkle and share something sweet, all in the name of making magic happen.

Whether you’re hosting a bake sale at school, a coffee and cake morning at work, or simply gathering friends for a slice and a smile, every delicious moment helps support the children and young people who need Dreamflight the most.

Make your Dreamflight Day a showstopper

We can send you everything you need to help your Dreamflight Day shine, including posters, bunting, QR‑code donation signs, balloons, cake labels, allergy notices and more.

Want to add a creative twist? Use our Dreamflight Day bunting or poster and turn your baking space into a masterpiece.

Take part from anywhere – donate with a virtual cake

If you can’t join an in‑person event this year, or you simply want to add a fun extra twist, you can now celebrate Dreamflight Day wherever you are with Virtual Cake for Dreamflight.

It’s as simple as:

  1. Click this link: Dreamflight Day 2026 – Give as you Live Donate
  2. Choose your donation amount
  3. Post a photo of your cake on social media and tag Dreamflight to join in the celebration from wherever you are in the world
  4. Not baking and just eating? Donate a Virtual Cake – zero calories, real impact.

Virtual Cake is just one way to get involved. If you’re taking part in an event or baking at home, you can still share your photos with us – simply tag us and use the hashtag #DreamflightDay2027. Every post helps spread the joy and inspires others to join in.

How your fundraising helps

This year’s Dreamflight Day will help fund more trips in the UK to fully accessible UK activity centres for children with more complex needs. These trips offer them the opportunity to try new activities, gain confidence and experience independence in a safe, supportive environment.

Bring your Dreamflight Day to life

There’s no right or wrong way to take part… if it involves cake, kindness and a little fun, it’s perfect for Dreamflight Day.

Some supporters like to gather colleagues for a coffee and cake morning; others run bake sales at school, set up a “pay‑what‑you‑like” cake table, or get creative with cupcake decorating. You can keep things simple, or put your own unique twist on it.

Every event, big or small, brings people together and helps create wonderful experiences for the children we support.

Share your Dreamflight Day photos

Whether you’re fundraising or simply joining in for fun, we’d love to see your creations. Just tag us on social media using #DreamflightDay2027. We love to fill our feeds with little sprinkles of extra joy.

Our fundraising team would be delighted to support you with anything you need for your Dreamflight Day. Whether you have a question, need materials, or would like a bit of guidance, we are here to help.
