The Sussex Snowdrop Trust provides essential care for children with life-threatening illnesses, offering medical, emotional, and financial support to families navigating incredibly difficult circumstances. Through a dedicated team of specialist nurses and counsellors, the charity ensures that children receive professional medical attention in the comfort of their own homes while their families are supported with guidance and reassurance.
Diana Levantine, Co-Founder and Chair of The Sussex Snowdrop Trust, expressed deep appreciation for the generous contribution. "On behalf of the children and their families who are cared for by The Sussex Snowdrop Trust, thank you so much for your very generous gift. Your contribution will directly help fund the dedicated nurses and counsellors who provide 'hospital at home' care for every local child diagnosed with a life-threatening illness."
The Trust must raise £500,000 to provide this vital Team who are there for families who are on the 'Snowdrop' pathway, who live within a 15-mile radius of Chichester. The charity has funded an additional nurse at Fordwater School in Chichester who caters for children who have complex educational and medical needs. The Care at Home Team is currently supporting 61 families in the local area.
