We are raising money in support of an incredible boy and his family who receive amazing care from Shooting Stars. He is in our class at school and we want to be able to give towards his care in anyway we can. We can see the benefits that he gets from their support and we know how much the time spent there means to him!

At Shooting Star Childrens Hospices we provide vital care for babies, children and young people, with a life-limiting condition and offer invaluable support to their whole family.

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.
