Hi Everyone,

 

Thank you for visiting my Just Giving Page.

 

Let me tell you a bit about who I'm raising money for now that you're here.

 

Chestnut Tree House is the only children's hospice in Sussex and cares for children and young adults from 0-19 years of age with progressive life-limiting and life-threatening illnesses from all over the county.

 

Chestnut Tree House looked after my friend Donna's sister before she passed away in 2004 and Donna's whole family know how amazing and supportive this charity is.


Completed in 2003, the hospice provides a 'home from home' environment with 10 children's bedrooms plus 8 family rooms, a wet and dry play area, computer and music rooms, a multi sensory room and hydrotherapy pool. The house is set in beautiful gardens within an area of outstanding natural beauty.

There are potentially 400 families with life-limited children in Sussex. Chestnut Tree House offers support for the whole family including psychological support, care in bereavement therapy, end of life and respite care and sibling support.

The hospice costs approximately £2 million per year to run. Families are not charged for their care and the hospice receives very little government funding so it relies almost entirely on the generosity, help and support of the people of Sussex and beyond!

Go check out their website and famililarise yourself with what this is all about:
