What is a Hospice?

Children’s hospices can offer a huge amount of support for children with serious or life-limiting medical conditions. Have a look through the links to find the ones closes to you, and then check out their website to see what kind of facilities they can offer your whole family.

These services might include:

• overnight respite care
• sibling support groups
• music and art therapy
• special events or meeting celebrities
• a hydrotherapy pool open to families on a weekly or monthly basis
• a safe place to have your child’s birthday party
• multi-sensory rooms
• toys, games and books
