We are the UK’s leading charity for the 49,000 children living with life-limiting conditions, and their families. We are here to ensure that no child or family
is ever left behind when it comes to getting vital care and support.
How we make a difference
Our work is changing lives
Hearing the news that your child is going to die young is heart-breaking. Together with everyone who provides care and support to families, we are changing lives, so children and families can get the right support and make the most of every moment together.
Improving transitions for seriously ill young people
Together for Short Lives has launched eight innovative new projects to help seriously ill young people get the vital support they need.
