Impact reports

At Together for Short Lives, we believe in a future where every seriously ill child and their family gets the high-quality children’s palliative and end of life care, when and where they need it.

This is a future that all of us at Together for Short Lives are working towards. This is a future we can only make possible with the incredible support of people like you.

While the challenges facing children’s palliative care are complex, there are clear solutions.  We’re working to help seriously ill children and their families access the care they need. We’re striving to get more expert healthcare professionals on the ground, and better support for them, to increase the quality of care. We’re campaigning for sustainable funding to strengthen these crucial services long into the future.

This year, we’ve reached more families than ever before through our Family Support Hub. We’ve brought together thousands of healthcare professionals to improve the way care is delivered. We’ve campaigned to influence laws and legislation to give long-lasting support to seriously ill children and their families.

This year’s impact report is a testament to the extraordinary work you’ve made possible. On behalf of seriously ill children and their families across the UK, thank you so much for your continued support.
