In 2025, no parent caring for a seriously ill child should struggle to get the support they need. Agree?

Add your name to the form below, and join the movement fighting for better access to support.

In recent research, we found that only 50% of parents caring for a seriously ill child feel well supported. Sadly, many feel abandoned by the system.

This must change.

There’s a care crisis in this country, and families are struggling to access the support they need. They face financial, emotional, and practical problems and they feel overwhelmed.

At Together for Short Lives, it’s our mission to make sure that every seriously ill child and their family gets the support they need when and where they need it.

If you agree that this needs to happen, add your name and join the movement. Make sure that the carers of seriously ill children get the support they need.
