Story

Help us support families in need this festive season.

Throughout this pandemic childhood illnesses and accidents haven't stopped. Unfortunately Christmas is no different to any other time of year with many families finding themselves with a child in hospital. Having a child in hospital is a devastating and difficult thing to go through without the worry of knowing where you can stay so you can be there by their side. Our house ensures families are able to spend Christmas together and be there for their child when they need them most.

With thanks for affording us a lovely, warm home from home at such a difficult time in our journey.

Coronavirus has had and continues to have a huge impact on us all. As a charity we have suffered detrimental losses with events being cancelled and fundraising limitations having a huge impact on our finances. We rely on fundraising and donations to keep our doors open to the families that need our help, so that we can continue to support them with free accommodation close to their little one in hospital.

A complete sanctuary in an unexpected sudden time of need. Thank you for everything.

It costs us £35 per room per night which in our 21 bedroom house comes to £735 a night. Every penny donated will go towards ensuring families in need this Christmas have a place to call home whilst their child is in hospital.

Why not ask friends and family to donate £3.50 each? If you can get 10 people together you can provide a night of accommodation to support one of our many families this Christmas.

Words cannot explain what this place means to us. You are all amazing people

We know this is a difficult time for us all and appreciate any support you are able to give. Thank you in advance for your kindness, generosity and help in keeping our doors open to families this festive season.
