Proud to Support Rainbows Hospice as our Charity of the Year

This year, we’re thrilled to announce that we will be supporting Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People.

Rainbows provides vital care and support to babies, children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions, and their families. The charity offers care in the hospice, at home and in hospital in many ways to support families through difficult times.

We encourage our customers and team to get involved and help us support this worthy cause.

About Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People

Rainbows opened in 1994 and was founded by Gail and Harry Moore, whose daughter, Laura, died of Leukaemia in 1989. Laura’s favourite thing in the world was a rainbow.

Rainbows helps families make the most of every precious moment, while capturing memories and keepsakes to treasure. It provides care and support for over 750 babies, children and young people with terminal and serious conditions, and their whole family, across the East Midlands.

Rainbows provides palliative care and end of life care, symptom management and respite at the hospice, at home and in hospitals. The charity offers comfort and compassion during tough times, provides the highest level of professional care until the end, and support after.

 Simply put, Rainbows is there to brighten short lives, and support families. Rainbows care will cost around £8.5 million for the next financial year, and the charity relies on the support of its fundraisers.
