Family forums

Family Forums provide the opportunity for you to share your feedback and views directly with Phil, the new Chief Executive and Tracy, the Director of Care. This might be describing your family’s experience of services, to input to and help shape future EACH care service delivery, or to help raise public understanding and awareness of the needs of families and the role of children’s hospice services.

Meetings will be for approximately one hour, online via Microsoft Teams, at a time to suit as many families as possible (this can include evenings). Meetings will take place every two months.

Not at all! The meetings are relaxed, informal and friendly. You can watch our short video here to get a flavour of what the meetings are like. You are very welcome to have your children with you in the room, and have a cup of tea (or a glass of wine or beer!) to hand.

That’s absolutely fine! There is no pressure to attend every time. Some families attend every meeting, others dip in as and when they can – it’s completely up to you.

Absolutely. Your views as a bereaved family are vital for helping us shape our services and your feedback, experiences, ideas and input are very welcome indeed.

Only if you want to! We are always looking for families to share their stories and experiences to help raise the profile of EACH, but there is never any pressure to get involved in this way.
