Children's Hospices Across Scotland
At CHAS, we care for dying children and their families. But right now, we can’t be there for every family that needs us.
You can change that. Join thousands of kind and caring people across Scotland, and donate to CHAS today. Your support will provide care for dying children and their families across Scotland.
Together, we will make sure that no family will be left to face the death of their child alone.
Care across Scotland
The needs and priorities of children and their families using our services are changing during this time of uncertainty.
We want to assure you the steps we are taking to continue, restart and evolve our service offering are in consultation with those in our care.

Get involved with CHAS
Knowing that your child may die before you do, is the unthinkable reality that thousands of families across Scotland have to cope with every day.
Right now, we only have enough money to help one in three families. You can help us to reach them all.
The CHAS Alphabet
The CHAS Alphabet is at the heart of everything we do. It’s bright, colourful and filled with fun and represents the joy we aspire to bring to the lives of the children and families we care for.
Best of all, the CHAS Alphabet is created by the very best designers – the children we care for.
You can buy your very own CHAS Letters online.

Abbie
When she was young, it looked like Abbie wouldn’t make it past 5 years old.
But Abbie lived until she was 11, and one of her favourite things to do was visiting CHAS.
