Building the future of palliative care at Martin House
Martin House Hospice has supported children with palliative care needs since the
1980s. As the needs of children with life-limiting conditions continue to evolve, so
too must the facilities that support them. That’s why Martin House embarked on
an ambitious redevelopment project to ensure the best possible care for its young
residents.
We are delighted to share that Phase 1, the construction of the new Children’s Unit,
has now been successfully completed. Delivered in partnership with Meldrum, this
vital space is already providing a comforting environment for children and their
families. It has been a tremendous effort from everyone involved to reach this
milestone, and we are incredibly proud to be part of such an important project.
With this phase complete, our attention now turns to the second phase, which
comprises of the newbuild Education Block, including a hydro-therapy pool,
recon昀椀guration of the existing Children’s Unit into the Wellbeing Wing and the
refurbishment and extension of the existing Adolescent Wing. This next step
ensures that Martin House can continue to offer exceptional care for young people
as they transition into adulthood.
We look forward to seeing this next stage take shape and to continuing our work
with Martin House to enhance this invaluable hospice for those who need it most.
