The Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice supports children with life limiting conditions and their families. The charity began more than 12 years ago as a result of the challenges of a local mum whose son, Russell, became very ill and needed hospice care. She was concerned at the lack of local support, and set about changing this.   Now we are over a year into delivering a Hospice at Home service, working with over 30 families and we are on the cusp of realising the dream of opening our very own children’s hospice.

The hard work really begins now, both in terms of delivering care for some very special families and also looking at the sustained fundraising challenge that lies ahead. 

With the on-going help of the local and business communities, we know Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice will support many, many more children and families long into the future.
