Story

Children's Hospice South West celebrate their 30th anniversary this year. The same year that local boy Joel Erents would have been celebrating his 13th birthday.

Joel, from Porthtowan, died at Little Harbour hospice in 2019 after battling an incurable brain tumour. His memory lives on in the many rainbows that bless the Porthtowan skies.

On Saturday 26th June, the weekend of his birthday, Team Porthtowan Rainbows will be completing a coast to coast from Devoran to Porthtowan. If you want to be involved and help to raise even more money for this amazing charity, then you're welcome to join the team and get training. Click on the 'Join the Team' link to do this or just choose to donate.

When you become part of the hospice community, only then do you realise just how many families in Cornwall need this support and how absolutely crucial it is to their lives.

Children's Hospice South West support thousands of families with a seriously ill child, welcoming them throughout every step of their journey, providing a safe haven of care, support and friendship.

With your support the hospice can continue to make a difference to the lives of families in the south west.
