Join the SPACE Team — the specialist paediatric palliative care experts from Shooting Star Children’s Hospice for a series of one-hour online teaching sessions, held on the third Thursday of each month, from 12:30–1:30 pm.
Each session focuses on a different aspect of paediatric palliative care, offering practical insights, case studies, and evidence-based approaches to support children with life-limiting conditions and their families.
Designed for healthcare and social care professionals, these bite-sized sessions are a perfect opportunity to learn, reflect, and connect. Recordings will be made available for those who can not attend the live sessions.
