Does Anyone know of a charity that grant a christmas surprise who have lost a parent?

I really want to nominate two toddlers who lost their young dad to cancer in February this year.

I have heard of a charity, Winston's Wish that supports children after losing a parent. I would probably make contact with them.

yes, Winston's Wish

Thank you for your replies.
I have looked into Winstons Wish and that appears more of a offering support to Children rather than granting a surprise, unless I am missing something.

No there isn't, I looked into this for my grandchildren and couldn't find anyone that had that criteria. In fact there is very little support for children who've lost a parent - or the surviving parent. Winston's Wish is small and doesn't cover most areas of the country outside of a few zoom sessions which barely scrape the surface.

I am sure there will be some charity that send out a Christmas gift or a hamper for the family though.
