Chestnut Tree House is the only children’s hospice in Sussex. We provide care across East and West Sussex for children and young people with life-limiting and life threatening illnesses. We provide a home from home environment where families can take a break and spend precious time together. The house is a place of love, understanding, caring, fun, laughter, hope, friendship, and, yes, sometimes sadness. Most of all it’s a place for living life to the full.
 
It costs over £2m each year to provide the hospice care services, and families are never charged for their care. We receive little government funding and have to raise 90p in every £1. Please see below how two family members described Chestnut Tree House.

CHESTNUT’S CHALLENGE

For every life-limited local child that Chestnut Tree House is caring for, there is another child somewhere in Sussex that we are not caring for. Please help us meet the challenge of reaching every one of them.

Without our support, families with life-limited children face overwhelming hardship and we simply cannot let that happen. That's why we have launched Chestnut's Challenge. This major project involves everyone in Sussex - and works in three crucial ways

Chestnut's Challenge:

1. For our Care Team - to find and care for every life-limited child in Sussex who needs our support. We've given ourselves three years to meet that challenge.
2. For local life-limited children and their families, to make the most of every precious day they have together.
3. For you, is to help us raise the money we need to pay for that care.
