Sparks is the children's medical research charity. Our sole remit is to fund research across the whole spectrum of paediatric medicine. Our goal is for all babies to be born healthy and stay healthy.

We raise money to give all babies the best start in life a healthy one. Our research, which is carried out by leading doctors and researchers nationwide, is saving and improving the lives of children throughout the world.

Our vision is a world where all babies are given the best possible start in life and where a medical condition or disability is not a barrier to opportunity and fulfilment. We achieve this by funding high quality medical research that is intended to have a practical and positive effect of the lives of children.
