Forget Me Not Children's Hospice supports children with life-shortening conditions, their families and families living with the loss of their child across West Yorkshire.

By providing superb nursing care, hydrotherapy, creative therapy, days out, memory making, end of life care, bereavement support and counselling, we help families make the most of every moment they have together. We do this from our purpose-built hospice - Russell House - in Huddersfield, in families homes through our Hospice at Home service, and in hospitals across West Yorkshire.

Our services have been rated 'outstanding' by the CQC.

We do things differently. If you thought you knew what a hospice was, think again. Prepare to be amazed…

It takes a lot of people to make Forget Me Not possible - from those we care for and our own team to hundreds of volunteers, donors, fundraisers and business supporters.

For families

Every single thing we do is designed to help you feel a little less alone and more able to make the most of every moment.

For our supporters

Ask our ‘Purple Posse’ – there’s nothing more fun or more rewarding than getting stuck in on our behalf.

For care professionals

Having our support can make all the difference to your patient care, as well as to your own CPD.

you can make a difference!

Every year more children are diagnosed with life-shortening conditions and more families are living with loss. With only around 6% of our income coming from government sources, we need the support of the whole community to help us continue to be here for the local families who desperately need our help.
