Ready to uncover the heartwarming reality of children’s hospices? Join us as Jules from the Treehouse Hospice in Ipswich, part of East Anglian Children's Hospices (EACH), shares an eye-opening tour of this inspiring sanctuary. Discover how this nature-filled environment busts the myths surrounding hospices by offering vibrant spaces like sensory rooms and lush gardens where children can play and thrive. Our personal reflections in psychiatry highlight how mental health care has evolved, blending seamlessly with the holistic approach taken by hospices today.
You’ll be amazed by the array of events and activities available at Treehouse Hospice, from magical winter wonderlands and festive Christmas parties to the unique Tree Fest, a mini Glastonbury for kids. The crucial roles of volunteers, nurses, carers, and the wellbeing team come to light, demonstrating the extensive network of support provided to families. We highlight the thoughtful details, such as bespoke meals catering to diverse dietary needs and the far-reaching impact of outreach programs that bring the hospice's care into homes and communities.
Listen in as we broach the sensitive topic of end-of-life care for children, emphasizing living fully rather than focusing on the end. Touching stories like the joyful wake of a young man showcase how hospices can create meaningful, celebratory moments even in the face of death. We delve into the challenge of discussing death with children and the supportive environment hospices provide to bridge this gap. Finally, learn about the myriad ways you can contribute, from volunteering your unique skills to donating, and make a substantial difference in the lives of these families.
