Short profile:
Naomi House and jacksplace are hospices for children and young adults that provide support to children and young people with conditions that mean they are unlikely to live to become adults. The charity provides care to families and young adults living in communities across the seven counties of Berkshire, Dorset, Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Surrey, West Sussex and Wiltshire.
Detailed description:
The charity has two specialist units, Naomi House for children, and jacksplace for young adults. Each unit is purpose built and offers an appropriate environment for each age group. It costs around £5million a year to run the two units. The charity receives around 10% of its funding from the Department of Health.
The remaining £4.5million is raised by people and businesses across region. Many people get involved in fundraising for the children’s charity. Other people volunteer their time to help ensure the hospice is able to continue it’s work.
At the moment we have opportunities for Trustees on a voluntary basis. The support given by Naomi House is unique in the central south. It delivers a range of services to help to relieve families from the day to day pressures of looking after a child or young person with a life limiting condition.
