About Helen & Douglas House
Helen & Douglas House is a registered charity providing respite and end of life care for children and young adults with life-shortening conditions, as well as support and friendship for the whole family. The two hospice houses are bright, vibrant and positive places, where the emphasis is on living life to the full, even when that life may be short.
Helen House, the world’s first childrens hospice, was established in 1983 and cares for children from birth to age 16. Douglas House opened in 2004 and is the world’s first hospice for young adults aged 16 to 35. Young people and their families come to Helen & Douglas House for short periods of time for rest and recuperation, treatment of distressing symptoms, end of life care and support. Helen & Douglas House aims to help the children and young adults who stay at one of the two Houses to live life to the full as far as possible.

We look forward to future initiatives in collaboration with Hayden Marsh – hope to see you there!"
