Our care

We’re here for children and families every step of the way. Our aim is to make every day count. The good days, the bad days and the last days.

We’re here to make sure that children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions and their families get all the care and support they need.

We want to make sure that families get to spend as much quality time together as possible. This means providing the best quality care and making sure there’s lots of fun (for the children, young people and adults!) that’s available to them.

Who do we offer care to?

Our services are here for children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions aged from birth to 18th birthday, as well as their siblings and parents. (We’ll also consider pre-birth referrals, and in special circumstances, referrals for young people aged over 17 years old on an individual basis).

We’re able to care for families living in West Sussex, East Sussex, Brighton & Hove and South East Hampshire.

Yes! We have separate family rooms where parents, carers and siblings can stay over. A child’s first overnight stay will always be with a family member, or carer, staying over too. 

Families have an allocated number of nights assigned to them, the amount of nights you’re able to stay over depends on the needs of your child. This will all be discussed with you once you’re referred. 

No, all of our care is completely free of charge. 

We rely almost entirely on charity donations. Our amazing supporters spend time fundraising, doing sponsored events, leaving legacies in their Wills and much much more to help raise the money it takes to keep us open.
