Family Support Service

Feature Image

Our Family Support Service offers the entire family practical and emotional support both in the home and in hospital. As well as working with the child who is ill, we offer support to parents and siblings in the following ways:

  • One-to-one sessions
  • Respite
  • Childcare
  • Constructive age-appropriate activities

Families can benefit from weekly two-hour support sessions which are reviewed regularly by the Family Co-ordinators and this service is available for a period of up to two years post-diagnosis.
