Zoe’s Place baby hospice in West Derby has been providing end-of-life and palliative care to babies and infants since 1995. The facility is known for its incredible work caring for children with complex needs and supporting their families during difficult times. However, the charity is facing financial struggles as it aims to move to a new site in Liverpool.
The news of Zoe’s Place’s funding challenges has led to a wave of support from the community. A city-wide campaign is underway to raise £5 million to help the hospice relocate. Many well-known personalities, including Jamie Webster, Claire Sweeney, and Paddy ‘The Baddy’ Pimblett, have joined the efforts to save Zoe’s Place.
The heart of Zoe’s Place lies in its dedicated nurses who provide care and support to each child. During a recent visit to the hospice, ECHO reporter Katie Westwood had the opportunity to meet some of these extraordinary nurses. Heartwarming photos captured by the ECHO showcase the compassionate work being done at Zoe’s Place.
The outpouring of love and fundraising efforts for Zoe’s Place demonstrate the deep impact the hospice has had on the community. The generous donations and support from the people of Merseyside highlight the importance of this vital organization. The hope is that with continued support, Zoe’s Place Liverpool will be able to secure its future and continue its essential work for years to come.
