Help build Claire House Liverpool
Donate nowClaire House urgently needs to build a hospice in Liverpool to provide specialist nursing and end of life care, as well as emotional support, for seriously and terminally ill babies, children, young adults and their families.
We have a site in West Derby, close to Alder Hey, where we are already providing therapeutic and emotional support to families, as well as day care activities.
But we need to do more. We need to build a hospice on the site, for Liverpool and beyond.
The need for Claire house is growing
Claire House currently support around 500 babies, children and young adults. We are here for families from the very beginning, supporting through pregnancy to age 25. But the need is growing, and we can’t meet it from Wirral alone.
Every year we provide end of life care to around 100 families.
60% of our new referrals are currently from Liverpool and surrounding areas.
Our caseload continues to grow and we expect 80% of that growth to be from Liverpool and surrounding areas
Too many Families are being left without the care and support they need
“We wanted our son Josh to pass at Claire House, but he was too ill to be transferred to the Wirral site. It was just too far. If the West Derby site was up and running, we absolutely would have preferred him to be transferred to it so he could pass there instead of Alder Hey. We wouldn't have chosen a hospital for him, as caring as Alder Hey was. We always wanted him to pass at Claire House.”
Kate Jones from Warrington, whose family are supported by Claire House.
Many families simply can’t reach our Wirral hospice when time is heartbreakingly short.
Our Wirral hospice remains vital, serving families across our wider region. But to reach every child who needs us, we must grow.
Being close to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital and the Liverpool Women’s Hospital is vital.
