QVMCC 7th Annual N.I. Childrens Hospice Run 2008

Download Hospice Run Flyer

The children's hospice provides a respite service, support service and end of life care for over
250 children both in the children's hospice at Horizon House and at home. Life-limited conditions
include progressive illnesses such as muscular dystrophy and/or rare genetic disorders or
life-threatening conditions such as cancer and heart disease. Such conditions require substantial,
complex and in many cases full-time care. Many of the life-limited children will die before reaching
adulthood.By providing this special care, we give the family and the full-time carer a well deserved
break. Children from birth to 18 years of age are eligible for care, and like all hospice services,
there is no charge for families. However our services cost £1.8 million annually and in view of
this werely heavily on organisations such as the Quay Vipers supporting us.
