Our Mission

Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW) exists to make the most of short and precious lives. We provide expert holistic and family centred care for babies, children, young people and their families living with life-limiting illnesses across the South West of England. This is delivered through our 3 hospices; Little Bridge House in North Devon, Charlton Farm in North Somerset and Little Harbour in Cornwall. Through our region-wide network of staff and supporters we raise awareness of the babies, children, young people and families whose needs we serve.

Our Vision for the Future

To be recognised regionally and nationally as a progressive centre of excellence in the care of babies, children and young people who are expected to die before attaining adulthood and their families through enhancing the quality and range of services offered in an efficient and sustainable way which maximises choice and access, and is carried out in partnership with others. Also sharing our expertise widely through the provision of education.

Our Ethos

CHSW’s ethos is to ensure that everyone (Trustees and all staff) place babies, children, young people and their families at the centre of the organisation. In order to achieve this, everyone will be expected to promote a strong, caring community environment characterised by sensitivity, consideration and responsiveness to others. CHSW will provide an excellent working environment and strive to be an employer of choice for equivalent organisations in the same sector.
