“The amazing nurses came and met us; they listened and understood what was happening – and best of all they told us they could help. And not just now and again, every week if we wanted it. Pete and I broke down in tears. It was one of those pivotal moments.”

A gift in your Will could mean a lifetime of memories for children and parents who may not have much time together.
W
hen parents receive the news that their child has a life-limiting or
life-threatening illness, their world falls apart. Hopes and dreams are replaced by the reality of round the clock care and the constant, terrifying knowledge that their child may not live into adulthood.
Julia’s House is a lifeline in Dorset and Wiltshire, providing bespoke, practical and emotional support for families - Mums, Dads, siblings and grandparents - when and where they need it the most.
Hospice care is just part of the package. 65% of support takes place in family homes or out-and-about in the community. Activities and social events provide fun and friendship for the whole family and the chance to create special memories together.
This valuable care can only continue with the support of the communities it serves. 95% of Julia’s House services are funded by the kindness of local people. Without the support of the local community, there would no Julia’s House.
You have the power to change lives and it won’t cost you a penny right

now. Leaving a Gift in your Will is one of the simplest ways of showing your kindness and commitment to helping mums and dads caring for a fragile child. Once you have taken care of your family, would you help us do the same for ours?
Amy Martin, from Julia’s House explains: “People who leave a gift in their Will are supporting one in four of the children we care for. That’s
a tremendous legacy to leave, and costs nothing now to do. We hope that when the time is right, people might consider that even by leaving just 1% from their Will to Julia’s House they will be making a life- changing difference to children.”

“Before Julia’s House there was just a void. It feels so wonderful to have the help we so desperately needed, it feels like the beginning of everything.”
