No one should feel alone when caring for a child with a life-limiting condition or diagnosis.
Our families tell us that the vital role that Haven House has in caring for seriously ill children. We received 5* results in our care, meeting individual needs, inclusivity and accessibility.
"Our heaven on earth, Haven House! Would be lost without them. Can't thank you all enough for what you do.”
“The overnight respite, along with the family room, allows me to take a break from my daily routine. I especially look forward to the morning knowing I can just focus on myself for a few hours, a luxury many people take for granted.”
Our mission is to provide the highest quality palliative and holistic care services to babies, children and young people and their families in our local communities. If your child or family are supported by Haven House, sign up to our parent newsletter
