Kettering Town KTFC Team Mikayla TM Partnership

Team Mikayla is proud to partner with Kettering Town Football Club for another season!  



The affinity between the KTFC and TM family has been deep-rooted for many years, and the amazing support for TM events at KTFC's Clubhouse has raised many thousands for so many inspirational local children, so the opportunity to give back for the benefit of both families via Perimeter Board, Matchday, and even Ball Sponsorship, is essential for our continued growth throughout the community.


You can follow the Poppies at www.ketteringtownfc.com


Do you have an idea or a suggestion?  Maybe there is something you would like to try? Contact us HERE

Your generosity via donations & sponsorship has allowed us to gift over 300 Treasure Boxes to brave children battling cancer


Join our Volunteer Team

Give us help & support at the four hospitals we grant wishes to.

  • Whether it is helping us to promote fundraising, or simply offering a helping hand at events, the children whom we grant wishes to, will know that you made a difference.
  • Local knowledge & involvement in the areas of Oxford, Leicester, Bristol and Nottingham would be a great addition to our team.
Tell us you are interested.

Our Inspiration and her Trustees

!! Team Mikayla is now Granting wishes to FOUR Children's Cancer Wards !!

Kamran's Ward

“A place Mikayla herself has visited all too often, and is where the idea for Team Mikayla was started”


“Our second hospital supporting and granting wishes to a new area is always exciting.”


“With the fantastic efforts of our fundraisers, we were able to add a third hospital, where we grant wishes to the children on the cancer ward..” 


“We recently added our fourth hospital, where we make sure smiles are plenty to the children fighting cancer and where smiles are often missing! ”

What our Gift Children's family have to say:

Mrs Jessica Flynn,
Sylar

The smile on her face, made me cry... A simple gift can make such a difference.

Matt,
A little fighter

Thank you, I hate the treatment, but the Lego is such fun, that I can forget the pain for a little while.
