Chestnut Tree House is the children's hospice for Sussex and cares for over 300 children and young adults from 0-19 years of age with progressive life-shortening conditions from East and West Sussex and South East Hampshire. Chestnut Tree House helps families live For the Now. We are the hand that reassures, a hug that comforts, a safe port in a sea of life-changing diagnoses and round the clock care. It currently costs well over £4 million each year to cover the cost of all the care services provided by Chestnut Tree House. Families are never charged for their care and less than 6p in every pound is funded by the government, so we rely heavily on the generosity, help and support of the people of Sussex.
