Download our free fundraising resources here to support your event.We receive many wonderful offers from people wanting to donate toys for the children at Little Havens. While we truly appreciate every thoughtful gesture, Christmas at the hospice looks a little different than many people imagine.
Care at Little Havens on Christmas is about providing specialist end-of-life care for those who need us most and care at home for the children and young people so they can be surrounded by the people they love. For these children, toys aren’t what they or their families need most right now. Instead, our specialist care, support, and compassion are the greatest gifts we can give.
That’s why we’d love to invite you to “Make Your Mark this Christmas” by supporting our work in another way.
Instead of collecting toys, you could help fund the expert care that gives local families precious moments together — whether that’s pain management, respite support, or helping a child spend their final days in the comfort of their own home.
You can make a difference by:
Thank you so much for your kindness and for thinking of the children and families cared for by Little Havens Hospice this Christmas. It’s the generosity of supporters like you that helps us make a real difference during such a special time of year.
