Children's Hospice South West

Charity Registration No. 1003314

At Children’s Hospice South West we help and support children and their families who are living with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions and we are the only organisation in the South West to provide vital hospice care to these families. Some families come to us for palliative care, some for emergency care and many for planned respite and a rare opportunity for a break away. But there’s more to it than that. We provide a loving and caring place for every member of the families who stay with us. A place where everyone can begin to forget their worries for a while, be a family again and find expert help and support in facing an uncertain future.

Our services are free to the families who need us because we believe that nothing should get in the way of very sick children receiving the very best care. So, with little government funding, we rely on the generosity of our supporters to deliver our promise to ‘make the most of short and precious lives’.

Children’s Hospice South West has two purpose-built hospices in the South West. Little Bridge House in North Devon and Charlton Farm in North Somerset. A third special home from home for life-limited children in Cornwall and Plymouth, is due to open in 2011 called Little Harbour.

My story

Welcome to Rufus' fundraising page, in memory of our beautiful baby who was with us for such a short but precious time.

Thank you for supporting Rufus' cause - Children's Hospice South West.
Charlton Farm was the best possible place for Rufus to spend his final days, and it's crucial that children like Rufus, (and their families) can continue to use the wonderful service it provides.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. Children's Hospice South West gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Your generosity is appreciated!

Kelsa, Ben & Felix
