Organised by Richard House TrustOur Richard House Care Team, and our families, have all been pushed to their limits by the pandemic. But seriously ill children still need care. You can stop Richard House from reaching breaking point by supporting us this Children's Hospice Week.
Your donation will support Robynn, Janet, Theresa and their colleagues, to stop them reaching breaking point.
The last year has been emotional. The pressure is so much that I dont know how to put words to it. But it's not the end for us. I look at these kids and I give them care with my whole heart. This is our calling, this is what we have to do. We can go a long way to help these children. - Janet, Senior Palliative Care Nurse
Any size of donation you can give for Children's Hospice Week will support our team as they continue to serve seriously ill children across the pandemic.
£5 could provide messy play supplies Robynn can use to help seriously ill children develop during lockdown.
£10 could cover the cost of PPE to protect Theresa through her next shift caring for a child in the family home.
£20 could provide an appropriate toy or game for Janet to play with a child staying in residential, helping them to develop and have fun.
£50 could cover the cost of a memory box that Janet can help a family create in our end-of-life suite.
£100 could cover transportation for Robynn to her next 20 Hospice at Home family sessions.
£500 could fund Janet supporting a child in two music and movement therapy sessions from specialists via Zoom.
£1000 could cover Theresa being able to deliver a month of Hospice at Home care to a family with no-one else to turn to.
Some families really want us to be there, in their home, three times a week. But because of funding we cant afford that. I wish we can get more help, so that we can be more helpful to people. Thats my real concern, because we can see that they really need us. - Theresa, Play & Care Worker
Your donation will keep Janet, Theresa and Robynn going, so that families who are isolated and alone get the vital help that they need. Thank you.
