We have a child in our class with several medical needs and I have joined few other members of our class to show my support to the wonderful hospice he attends. ‘Shooting Stars’ provides a safe place where this child is looked after and offered opportunities/activities to relax and enjoy his life. He always sounds excited and looks forward to going there.

Hope you will show your support by donating as much as you wish!!

As well as respite care and lots of activities for the children to get involved with, we are there when the time comes to ensure that end of life care is sensitively provided, to give the family a chance to say goodbye in their own way.We also provide an extensive range of counselling, therapies and support groups for the whole family. Whether its a creative therapy for the child, counselling for a parent or a support group for a sibling or grandparent our dedicated therapies team look after everyone.We offer physiotherapy, occupational therapy advice and support and complementary therapy for much-needed opportunity for parents to switch off from the stresses of life and take a moment to relax.
