About Children's Hospice South West

At Children’s Hospice South West we care for children who have illnesses which mean they will die before reaching adulthood. We provide expert care for them, their parents and well siblings. We are the only organisation in the South West to provide such care. Some families may use the hospice for many years, from the time the child is first diagnosed as having an incurable condition which will mean they will die in childhood.

They may come for planned short breaks, emergency care or end of life care, and will usually be accompanied by family members.

The whole family can stay at our hospices, and with a dedicated sibling support service available, this means that the well brothers and sisters can be cared for during their visit and enjoy spending time with other children in similar situations to their own.

The support we give extends to the whole family, into bereavement and beyond for as long as each family needs us.

With over 1,000 life-limited children across the South West, our support for families is absolutely vital.
