Happy Halloween everyone! 🦇👻

Some of the children and young adults had lots of fun in the hospice this week with Halloween-themed crafts, music and the parachute, and a special visit from the Sanderson Sisters (witches Winifred, Mary and Sarah) from Hocus Pocus.

Thanks to Ever Enchanted Events and the Sanderson Sisters who, along with our Play Team, made sure magical, spooky memories were made for all.

Today, on the 31st October, we are remembering Ellie Cook. Her family has chosen to Pay For a Day in her memory.

This Pay For a Day, for Ellie’s 22nd birthday, has been paid for with the proceeds from the 2024 Claire House Club Challenge, a fishing contest set up by Ellie’s dad, Colin.

The challenge continues to have amazing support from all the anglers who have been involved with it over the years since it began in 2012.

Last year's fundraising raised £16,410, taking the total amount to date to £164,517.00 and to know that people continue to support us in Ellie’s name is very special.

Colin, Linda and Mia would like to thank every single person who has supported the challenge and helped to make it such a success.

We're all excited by the news that Brookside returns to our screens tonight for a special one-off episode to mark Hollyoaks 30th anniversary 🤩

Recorded just round the corner from our Liverpool site in West Derby, we can't wait to see what the old characters have been up to 🎥

One of them will be Nikki Shadwick, played by the lovely Suzanne Collins. The Liverpool actress recently judged at our Claire House does Strictly event 🪩

She talked about her excitement at returning to the famous close (nearly 22 years on!) with cast members including Sue Johnston, who last year voiced Claire House's Christmas campaign.

Suzanne also spoke about what Claire House means to her ❤️

She said: “The Brookside return has created a lovely buzz in the press, and with the public. So when Claire House got in touch to congratulate me, I was so honoured to be asked to be part of Strictly.

“The work that goes on at Claire House, supporting seriously ill babies, children and young adults, and their families is incredible. It was a privilege to play a small part in helping such a wonderful cause.

“I've lots of lovely memories of supporting Claire House. One Christmas, I was there, dressed as Mrs Christmas, and it was snowing. It was magical to see the children’s happy faces and see their families and all the staff.

“Claire House is a special place. What makes it special is the love you feel going there, whether you’re a child, a family member or a visitor.”

Today, Aaron’s family have chosen to pay for a full day of care at Claire House Children’s Hospice, in memory of their little boy who brought so much joy in his short life.

Aaron's mum Emma describes Claire House as a lifeline. Whether it was throwing birthday parties, providing 24/7 nursing care, or providing a place where Aaron and his big brother Callum could simple be children, the hospice became a second home. “Without Claire House, we would be completely lost,” she said.

Thank you to Aaron’s family, your generosity will help create precious moments for others, just like the ones you shared with Aaron. 💛

Our Pizza & Pony Party was full of fun over the weekend! The children and young people got creative making their own pizzas (complete with chef hats!) and loved meeting the ponies. 🐎💖🍕

Today, we welcome the news that the UK Government will maintain and increase NHS funding for children’s hospices in England over the next three years.

This development represents a huge campaign win for Together for Short Lives, which represents children’s hospices across the UK and the seriously ill children and their families they care for.

Claire House CEO David Pastor said: “We are delighted that the Government is taking the matter of sustainable funding for children’s hospice care seriously, and would like to thank our MPs, in particular Matthew Patrick and Ian Byrne, for continually championing this vital issue.

"During the next three years, we hope to see a long-term plan which properly addresses the disparity between what is funded by the state and what is paid for by our incredible supporters, so we are able to achieve our vision of one day being able to help every baby, child, young person and their families.”

Thank you to everyone who has supported our campaign 🙏
