More information about Chestnut Tree House:

Chestnut Tree House is a children’s charity providing hospice care and community support for children and young people with life-shortening conditions. There are hundreds of children and young people in your local community who are unlikely to reach adulthood. And even more parents and family members who need care, help and support on their journey, as they do not know how long they will have together. Your help enables families to spend time together. Precious moments that give a lifetime of memories.
