Welcome to Demelza East Sussex

Demelza offers a community hospice at home service for children and young people, providing therapies, short breaks and end of life care in the comfort of a child’s own home across East Sussex.

Our specialist nurses also provide care and support in other community settings, allowing a child or young person to continue life as normal with as little disruption as possible. The community team give families a break without having to travel and enables children and young people with serious or life-limiting conditions to have specialist care in familiar surroundings. As a result, families are given more flexibility and helped to retain a sense of control and independence.

Our community hub in St Leonards in East Sussex has accessible facilities including a sensory room, activity room and garden for children and families to enjoy.
