Raising money for

The Shooting Star Children's Hospice

Charity Registration No. 1047916

The Shooting Star Children's Hospice provides care, support and advice for children and young people with life-limiting conditions and their families. These care services are offered free of charge to families, 365 days a year.

Shooting Star opened in 2005 and now supports 250 families. The care services are based around the needs of the whole family, so as well as caring for the children and young people, there are activities and support groups for siblings, parents and other relatives. This makes a real difference to families who find themselves in unimaginable circumstances - helping them live life to the full by providing opportunities for fun and laughter, as well as helping them through the tougher times.

Families benefit from Shooting Star's care services in the community, in their own homes and at Shooting Star House, the purpose-built facility based in Hampton, Middlesex. These services include Short Breaks (respite care), Day Care, Outreach Care, Family Support and Therapies and End of Life Care.

It costs £3 million every year (£8,000 a day) to maintain these care services and with no long-term statutory funding, the majority of this comes from voluntary donations.

My story

Thanks very much to everyone who supported the inaugural Shooting Star Cricket 6’s (SSC6’s) tournament played at Marble Hill Park on Sunday 13th September 2009. Here is a link to a film of the day that was very kindly made by Mark Hughes of Spellbound Pictures. http://www.spellboundpictures.co.uk/ShootingStar.html

The day was a fantastic success in terms of money raised and fun was had by all - there was even the odd moment of quality cricket too. We would like to thank everyone who made such an effort in supporting the day. In particular the following people made it all possible: Morgan and Phillipa; Simon; Raz; Gavin and Trudy; Natalie; Isla; Debra; Kate and Sarah as well as all the Team Captains for whipping their teams into shape and finally everyone who very kindly donated prizes for the raffle and auction.

A huge thanks also to Pepsi; Red Bull; Realale.com; Ruggerbeez; Tom Williams and Harlequins FC; Beverly from Boogiebabes and Singing Hands.

We are very much looking forward to an even bigger and better event next year.
