families withaseriously ill child in hospital a

free, comfortable place to stay in one of our ten

“Homes from Home” around the UK. Hospital

can bealonely, scary place for anyone, but

especially forachild. By providing families with

somewhere to stay just minutes from their sick child, we ensure they have

one less thing to worry about.

As acharity, we rely entirely on voluntary donations to keep our “Homes

from Home” running, to make sure as many families as possible can be

together. It costs the charity just £30 to supportafamily for one night, giving

them so much more than justaroof over their heads when their child is in

hospital. Each £30 gives them someone to talk to, andacalm place to rest

and recuperate.Visit sickchildrenstrust.org.
