For Kalten, hospital treatments are a constant reality which won’t stop at Christmas.
Essential restrictions on visitor numbers will make Christmas difficult and lonely for our patients in hospital – especially for children who are sick.
New measures are also impacting the play therapy we fund to give kids fun and some distraction during their stay.
This is why we need your support now.
Kalten is one child whose Christmas holidays will include multiple visits to hospital. You can make it a happier time for him,
Can you imagine how difficult that must be for a lively 8-year-old boy who just wants to have fun?
Please help with a generous donation today.

“Children in hospital just want to be at home . . . a play therapy program helps them feel less anxious and scared – it makes it so easy to put a smile on their little faces.”
Larah Nicholls, Play Therapist, Canberra Hospital
