"Nursing respite care for life limited and life threatened young children in Gloucestershire"
About James Hopkins Trust
James Hopkins Trust is a Gloucestershire charity, established in 1989, providing free nursing-led respite care for babies and children up to six with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions. Care is delivered at home or at Kites Corner in Gloucester, a purpose-built centre offering one-to-one, overnight and Little Kites sessions, plus play, sensory activities and family support. By giving families a safe environment and time to rest and reconnect, the Trust addresses the physical and emotional strain of caring for a severely disabled or seriously ill child. Its family-centred approach helps children enjoy play and make lasting memories while easing pressure on caregivers, and supports over 100 Gloucestershire families.
