Brian House provides respite, palliative and end of life care for children and young people with life-limiting conditions. That means we care for youngsters both during the day and overnight, and we support their families at every step of what can be an unpredictable journey.
Theres no such thing as a standard Brian House child they may suffer from a range of complex conditions that impact on every aspect of their lives. We cater for them all, getting to know their likes and dislikes, understanding what their needs are and often forming close relationships with them and their families.

We can provide:
Support for the entire family (including siblings, grandparents and the extended family)
Specialist short break care
