MARTIN HOUSE-
- provides care
and support to families in which there is a child or children with a short life expectancy.
We share with the
families the care of the child. This can take the form of symptom control, emergency care, respite care and terminal
care, and the care can be provided at Martin House or in the family home. We try to offer flexible care and support
to all the family taking account of their background and culture.

DREAMS COME TRUE
All children have dreams, but how many get the chance to turn their dream into
reality? For every child this would be a magical moment in their lives, but for those suffering from a life-threatening illness
or a long-term debilitating condition, it can have an even greater impact. Each
year the Dreams Come True Charity brings a smile to the faces of hundreds of children and young adults between 2 and 21 years
who are suffering from a serious or terminal illness. We aim to bring some happiness into their lives, the benefits of which
are many and varied for both the children and their families.
