The 21st of November will forever remain a milestone moment in our history 🏡

Our hospice at Very Special Kids House is the legacy of our first employee and patron, Sister Margaret Noone – who had the well-deserved honour of cutting the ribbon to officially open the rebuilt facility.

A big thank you to everyone who helped us turn this dream into a reality. We hope to foster many more heartwarming moments within these four walls. Memories that can stay with a child and their family for a lifetime.❤️

Josiah entered the world fighting for his life. He

Josiah entered the world fighting for his life. He was born with a hole in his heart and a life-limiting condition. 💖

For Josiah’s mum Ruth and his dad Travis, every single day has come with desperate hope for their son’s survival.

Now four years old, Josiah’s neurometabolic condition affects him every day and night. He has difficulty breathing and is susceptible to respiratory illnesses with multiple cases of serious pneumonia. His vision is significantly impaired, and he has low muscle tone that can make it impossible to do simple things like sit on his own.

To this day, there is no treatment for Josiah’s condition. Not even a reference point.

That’s why we’re asking for your help to raise vital funds this Christmas, to support families like Josiah’s with everything from hospice respite care to counselling.

Will you help parents like Josiah’s, who have had the unbearable experience of witnessing their child’s life on the line?

Please send your kind Christmas gift as soon as you can to help fund vital respite through our children’s hospice over the Christmas period.

Over 100 very special families joined us for our end-of-year celebration on Saturday!✨

This event has always been a family favourite, providing children and families a stress-free opportunity to take some family portraits or a photo with Santa. As well as a chance to do some festive shopping away from the busy crowds.

We are so grateful to @heartfelt_ausnz for capturing so many magical moments that will now last a lifetime. We'd also like to acknowledge all the devoted volunteers and vendors who brought the celebration to life.
