About Forget Me Not Children's Hospice
Forget Me Not Children's Hospice provides specialist care for babies, children and families affected by life-shortening conditions or the loss of a child across West Yorkshire. Based at Russell House in Huddersfield, its teams support families in the hospice, at home, in hospital and in the community.
Support includes nursing care, day care and short breaks, creative therapies, end-of-life care, bereavement support and counselling. The charity also helps families during pregnancy and birth and responds to sudden child bereavement. Care is tailored to each family's circumstances, with services for children and young people up to the age of 21.
Working across the charity
Care and family support teams work alongside fundraisers, retail colleagues and corporate services covering finance, HR, IT, estates and volunteer coordination. The charity’s recruitment information explains how these different roles contribute to keeping hospice services running and raising the income that supports them.
Development and staff support
The charity’s careers information offers learning, training and professional development opportunities. Staff support includes an employee assistance programme, resilience sessions and occupational health. Its recruitment guide also describes induction with both the immediate team and the wider organisation, followed by ongoing support and development.
