Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Rosy (Respite nursing for Oxfordshire’s Sick Youngsters)is dedicated to the provision of additional respite care to Oxfordshire’s sick youngsters who are nursed at their own homes.

It is often difficult to contemplate, but some children are born with life limiting or chronic conditions and others develop them early in their lives. Most can be nursed at home, it is what their families want, for it is often better for the children to be with their loved ones, their own pets, toys and familiar surroundings but this need places an enormous burden on the families.

Rosy was formed in 2002 to provide additional nursing, specialist
equipment and additional support in times of great need. Rosy provides the funding for ten nurses, medical and sensory equipment and specialist toys, a limited counselling service and assistance to support a leisure facility for the sick youngsters and their siblings.
