The Sick Children's Trust is the charity that gives families with a seriously ill child in hospital a comfortable place to stay and a friendly ear to listen in one of our ten Homes from Home. Hospital can be a lonely and scary place for anyone, but especially a child. Providing families with somewhere to stay together just minutes from the hospital means that they can be by their sick child's side and have one less thing to worry about.

With the help of so many generous supporters, we have helped over 73,000 families since 1982, with a welcoming place to stay when they have really needed it.

When our daughter Florence was born premature at 25 weeks, we were kindly offered a room to stay in at the Hospital (Chestnut House), this enabled us to stay closer to Florence whilst in hospital and we are forever grateful for having that option thanks to the Sick Children's Trust.
