Donate to Demelza at Christmas
Make a donation this Christmas to your local children's hospice.
What your Christmas donation could help provide
This Christmas, a donation of £50 could pay towards a short break at one of our hospices, giving the whole family the chance to rest and recharge over the festive period.
Your gift today can help families to step away from the noise of everyday life and 24-hour medical care, to just be together.
Demelza provides extraordinary care to 1,197 families. This Christmas alongside providing festive activities, we will continue to provide care.

Meet the families your Christmas donation can support.
These stories show some of the children and families supported by Demelza and the difference your donations can help to make.
Daisy is willful, kind and very, very active! She also has a rare, complex medical condition, so since Daisy was little, Demelza has been providing support to her and her family, including care at home, art therapy for her sister, support during hospital stays, and family events.
