Shooting Star CHASE | Children with Cancer UK

West London, Surrey and West Sussex

Since 2008, we have donated £480,000 to Shooting Star CHASE to provide practical and emotional support for families in West London, Surrey and West Sussex.

Shooting Star CHASE (previously CHASE Hospice Care) exists to support children and teenagers with life-limiting conditions and their families. In 2003 and 2004, we also contributed a total of £150,000 to the hospice charity to help meet the cost of providing services to the families of children whose leukaemia treatment has failed. These children need time and space with their families to come to terms with what is happening. They also need specialist care to ensure that their remaining time is as comfortable as possible.
