The Hospice of Windsor and Essex County - Children and Family Centred Programs

We are dedicated to providing an oasis of peace for those who access our services. Our children's programs address this goal in a crucial way for children and families affected by life-altering diagnoses. We provide a safe space for children to explore illness, grief and bereavement in an age-appropriate manner, furthering their understanding of what is occurring, and facilitating family communication. We believe that whether a child is affected directly by a diagnosis, or indirectly through a sibling, parent or family member, their place in the heart of the family makes providing support crucial to the continued stability of the family unit and their community as they journey through a diagnosis.

All of our children's programs are free and designed to help bring some normalcy and stability back into the lives of children affected by life-altering diagnoses. The Hospice employs the only certified play therapist south of London, and offers a variety of groups and individual therapies.
