Caring for a child suffering from a life-limiting condition can be physically and emotionally exhausting, as well as financially demanding for parents. Siblings often feel left out and parents rarely get any time to themselves. Everyday activities which are usually taken for granted, such as having a bath or going shopping, become an enormous challenge for our families. This is where Shooting Star makes a real difference.

Our Care Team provide one-to-one care for the children and with the peace of mind that their child is in caring and safe hands, parents can get much-needed rest and devote quality time to siblings and other family members.
