Save Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice Bury
Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice is having to close its doors just a few months after opening due to lack of funding and resulting debts. The Children’s Hospice, formerly Graces Place provides vital care to children and their families in Bury and surrounding areas.
Why is this important?
Without this facility children with life limiting conditions and their families will suffer and there will be an impact on NHS services in the local area that are already overstretched and cannot provide the type of care that Forget Me Not specialises in. The work they do is so important, let’s hope none of us ever need their support but it would be reassuring that should we be in that difficult position, Forget Me Not would still exist to provide help and care.
