“Children’s hospices are a lifeline, and I have been privileged to see first-hand the remarkable work they do. They give families the care and time they need to make treasured lifelong memories – the chance to be parents, not carers.”

The letter went on: “Vitally, they are also there when it is time to say goodbye, making sure a family has privacy and dignity so they can grieve together, and are able to receive support for as long as they need it.”

Tracey Rennie, a hospice exec revealed last year the impact that Kate has had on the patients and their families. She told the Heirpod podcast, “She has always been the same, she’s been incredibly friendly, incredibly open, caring. She is just at ease talking to a family with a child who has a really profound disability to a child with a brother and sister that might be running around, or even a newly bereaved family that is still coming to terms with a child dying.”

“Without her realizing, she creates really precious memories for families.”
