Every donation is 'Making every day count'

Thank you for supporting the Chelmsford Takeover in aid of Little Havens Children’s Hospice

We’re the children’s hospice for Essex, and our care only exists thanks to fundraising events like this, brought to you by our friends at Chelmsford for You and Essex Cosplayers.

Did you know the charity must raise more than £79,000 a week to be there for every baby, child and young person that needs us?

If you enjoyed today’s fundraising event and would like to donate towards our care, we would be ever so grateful.

  • £5 could pay for craft materials for a session of creative therapy, helping children express themselves through various accessible art techniques, creating something personal as a keepsake for their loved ones
  • £16 could pay for half an hour of care at Little Havens, providing care during a respite break, emergency stay or support at the end of a child’s/young person’s life
  • £20 could pay for a family meal, providing them with a nutritious dinner/lunch which they may not have time to always prepare at home because of the demands of caring for a child who has complex needs
  • £32 could pay for an hour of care in the home of a child or young person, providing personal and therapeutic care. This helps give some respite for their parents/carers so they can relax, do chores such as shopping, or spend time with their other children.
  • £64 could pay for two hours of care at Little Havens, providing care during a respite break, emergency stay or support at the end of a child’s/young person’s life
