Momentum Children's Charity We help families of seriously ill children to keep moving forward. Working across South West London, Surrey and Sussex, we partner with local hospitals who refer families to us following their child’s diagnosis of cancer or a life-challenging condition.
Through our Family Support Team, we work closely with these families to understand their individual needs, offering them personally tailored support, both in hospital and at home.
Our support services include counselling and a range of creative therapy services – such as play, art and music – as well as special experiences and respite breaks to ease some of the stresses that come with a gruelling treatment plan. If the unthinkable happens, and a child dies, we offer bereavement support and stand by families for as long as they need us. We also improve the environment for children treated in local hospitals with our children’s ward refurbishments; transforming bare, clinical areas into bright, child-friendly spaces.
We’re there whatever the outcome, for as long as we’re needed, so that no family has to cope alone.
