Christmas is coming at
Zoë's Place Baby Hospice ALL
things Christmas are happening at Zoë's Place Baby Hospice. Christmas is a
time to think of others and to be thankful for what we have. At Zoë's Place
we support over 70 families every year that are presented with new
challenges each day. Their babies and children aged 0 to 5 have been
diagnosed with a life threatening and/or limiting condition. For many of the
charities families, this means 24/7 care for their little ones and having to
see them go through treatment and situations that is incomprehensible to
many of us. Zoë's Place offers these families a place where they are in the
knowledge that their precious babies are safe and well looked after on a 1
to 1 basis, with fully qualified nurses and professionals. All year round
Zoë's Place aims to ensure that the children are well care for, and can live
their life to the best of their ability, but also allowing their parents
time with siblings, to get jobs done around the house and/or simply to catch
up on some sleep. The support offered at Zoë's Place includes counselling
and bereavement services, when appropriate. With Christmas being
the embodiment of the spirit of love, generosity and of goodness, Zoë's
Place have been creating different opportunities for the local community to
engage with and support others this Christmas. They hope to do this
with events such as running a 'Christmas Fair', holding a
'Christmas Jumper Day' or running initiatives such as:- 'Share
a card' or 'Give a Gift.' The team at Zoë's
Place are also trying to encourage you to celebrate the life of a loved 1
through their 'Light up a Life' scheme. "We are also
looking for new and unwanted items and bottles that we will be able to use
at our Christmas Fair and/or windows and notice boards that will be happy to
display our posters. Here at Zoë's Place Baby Hospice, we are so thankful to
the local community, because without you we would not exist and the families
we look after wouldn't have the support that we offer." they
