Caring for children and young people

Derian House cares for terminally ill children and young people, and those with a life threatening illness from all cultural, religious and ethnic backgrounds

The hospice, whilst situated in Lancashire, has a catchment area which extends from Carlisle in the North down as far as Manchester in the South, and provides care 24 hours a day, not only within the hospice itself, but through its “Hospice at Home” care facility.

In addition to the practical and emotional care and support on offer Derian House has established a viable and invaluable network of care in Bereavement Support which is offered to parents, grandparents and siblings.
