Families caring for a child with a life-limiting or life-threatening condition often need more than nursing care. Alongside treatment and practical help, emotional support is vital to how families cope and manage through loss and grief.
To address these needs, Gaddum has partnered with Kentown Support to deliver the therapeutic strand of the Kentown Model; an integrated approach to children’s palliative and end-of-life care across Greater Manchester.
We're proud to work with partners like Kentown Support to deliver emotional and practical support, where and when families need it most.
