Julia’s House provides outstanding, award-winning care for babies, children and young people with life-shortening and life-threatening conditions and support for their families. Our nurses and carers are in the community, in our hospices and in homes across Dorset and Wiltshire providing frequent, regular short breaks for mums and dads and social opportunities for the whole family. Our care is free of charge for families and available 365 days a year. Unlike most other hospices, we give families regular, frequent and flexible care week in week out. We want every member of the family to feel positive and supported – to get the most out of their time together.
