Registered Charity No: 1096622 (England & Wales).
The Sussex Snowdrop Trust is the local children’s charity, based in West Sussex, which provides vital nursing care at home for children who have a life-threatening illness such as, cancer, brain tumours, lung and heart conditions.
The paediatric community nurses help parents care for their sick child. They advise them on how to administer medications, manage gastric tubes, change dressings or give support when needed, following diagnosis. Emotional support is available for all members of the family. Financial help is given to families who find it difficult to cope with the extra cost pressures.
The Trust must raise £400k to provide this specialist Care at Home Team who are there for families who are on the ‘Snowdrop’ pathway, who live within a 15-mile radius of Chichester. The Trust has most recently provided an additional nurse at Fordwater School, Chichester, West Sussex that caters for children who have severe and complex learning difficulties.
Leaving a gift in your Will, however small, will have a lasting impact on the lives of these children who need vital support to fulfil their potential through illness and challenges.
