Giving a gift in celebration is the perfect way to make your celebration extra special. Whatever the occasion – birthday, wedding, anniversary or even baptism, graduation or retirement – celebrate it with friends and, instead of receiving gifts, ask for donations to Shooting Star Children’s Hospices.
Ways to give
There are lots of ways you can choose to support Shooting Star Children’s Hospices. From life’s big milestones to a weekly lottery, your support enables us to provide vital care to children and young people with life-limiting conditions.

We want to help families make every moment count and as every child who visits our hospices has their own unique needs, we need to ensure we’re equipped with toys and games for all ages and abilities, and equipment that’s needed day-to-day to deliver outstanding care.
Many people who support us like to make a donation of an item that will really make a difference. This could be a Christmas present or Easter gift for a supported child. It could also be items that will help a family going through an incredibly difficult time, gifts to help our care staff in their jobs at our hospices, or items for our community nurses to use when they’re visiting families.
