Anya recently has been spoken about in many national newspapers and we were wanting to do a post where we can summarise all the posts and their links in one. We were delighted to hear about Anya becoming the new face for a national scottish charity (Children's Hospice Across Scotland) CHAS and their summer appeal. They have just been amazing and being a great support for us as a family before lockdown and after. Anya has made massive development leaps and thanks to the team at CHAS who have been instrumental in her inch stones.
We cannot thank CHAS enough !
About Children's Hospice Across Scotland (CHAS)
Children’s Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS), formally known as Children's Hospice Association Scotland, is a registered charity that provides the country's only hospice services for children and young people with life-shortening conditions. The first hospice was built thanks to the late editor-in chief of the Daily Record and Sunday Mail, Endell Laird, who launched a reader appeal which raised £4million. CHAS offers children’s hospice services, free of charge, to every child, young person and their families who needs and wants them. CHAS was formed in February 1992 by a group of professionals and parents of children with life-shortening conditions who had travelled to England for hospice care. In 2018/19, CHAS supported 465 children with a life-shortening condition, and their siblings, parents and wider families. The care provided is multi-disciplinary, including from doctors, nurses, social workers, pharmacists, play specialists and others. CHAS also employs medical and nursing staff who work in hospitals alongside NHS doctors and nurses.
