Shooting Star Children’s Hospices warmly welcomes you to Shooting Star House in Hampton.
This Open Day is a wonderful opportunity to explore our facilities, meet our incredible Family Support, Care Events, Fundraising and Retail and Volunteer teams, and learn more about the specialist care and support we provide to families with a child or young person living with a life-limiting condition, or who have experienced bereavement.
Shooting Star House is our Outreach, Therapies and Family Support Centre. Here, families can access bereavement support, counselling, therapies, drop-in sessions, sibling groups, family activities, interactive play sessions, and one-to-one support from our dedicated family support workers. The impact of their work is truly life-changing, and we would love for you to see first-hand the difference it makes.
While our overnight care takes place at our Guildford hospice, Christopher’s, alongside a wide range of therapies and activities, this Open Day will focus on Shooting Star House. Although Christopher’s won’t be open to visit on the day, our team will be very happy to chat with you about the vital work happening there.
During your visit, you can enjoy complimentary food and drink, take part in fundraising activities, and enter our raffle for the chance to win some fantastic prizes. There will also be stalls to browse and plenty of opportunities to speak with members of our team.
We have two bookable time slots available on Friday 12 June:
- 10:00am
- 11:00am
These time slots help us manage the flow of visitors and ensure everyone has the chance to connect with our team. You’re very welcome to stay beyond your allocated slot to enjoy refreshments, browse the stalls, or get involved in our fundraising activities. Shooting Star House will remain open to the public until 2:00pm.
