I attended the APPG for Children Who Need Palliative Care reception in Westminster, hosted by Together for Short Lives. The event provided an important update on the challenges facing children’s palliative care services across England.
We are fortunate to have Acorns Children’s Hospice serving our area. The dedicated team there provides vital care for children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions, as well as crucial support for their families. But like many children’s hospices across the country, Acorns is under increasing pressure.
