Bristol Charity Advent Calendar 2018, day 5: Children’s Hospice South West

By Bristol24/7  Tuesday Dec 4, 2018

For more than 25 years, Children’s Hospice South West has been caring for children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions by providing children’s hospice and professional family support services.

The charity is dedicated to making the most of short and precious lives through the provision of the best possible hospice care for children and young people with life-limiting conditions.

The care offered at each of our three hospices, including Charlton Farm in Wraxall, is not just about medical and nursing support for sick children but enriching lives of the children and their whole family.

EatDrink24/7 Launch Party is back on July 8 2026!
Exclusive collabs from Bristol’s favourite food vendors, available for one night only. Be first to grab your free copy of the EatDrink24/7 guide – plus every ticket comes with a free limited-edition beer can.

Services include specialist palliative care, respite for the whole family, a sibling service for brothers and sisters, emergency support, end of life care and a bereavement service for as long as is needed.

This year’s annual Santas on the Run raising money for Children’s Hospice South West takes takes place on Sunday, December 9.

The event village will be in the Lloyds Amphitheatre from 11am (the race starts at 1pm) where face painters, entertainment and DJs will welcome you and get you in the Christmas mood.

There will be food and refreshments available, a festive Santas warm-up and photographers to capture all the fun of the day.
