About Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW)
- Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW) was first registered with the charity commission in 1991.
- It is dedicated to making the most of short and precious lives, providing the best possible hospice care for children with life-limiting children and their families.
- There are 3 hospices in the South West: Little Bridge House in Barnstaple (opened 1995), Charlton Farm near Bristol (opened 2007) and Little Harbour in St Austell (opened 2011).
- CHSW is the only children’s hospice in the South West. It costs around £11 million to run the 3 hospice sites each year and the charity relies almost entirely on voluntary contributions.
- CHSW delivers a range of services including short breaks, specialist play, music therapy, activities for siblings, palliative and emergency care, end of life care, bereavement support and specialist medical care – all available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
- The services are free for families. To find out more about our work, visit www.chsw.org.uk
