Professionals
Committed to providing healthcare professionals with the resources and guidance they need to support patients and families.
Working together to provide the best possible care.
When a family is caring for a baby or child with a life-limiting or life-threatening condition, they’re often supported by many different professionals. At Little Lights Liverpool, we work alongside those teams to provide specialist paediatric palliative care that’s joined up, compassionate and centred around the child and their family.
Whether you’re making a referral, looking for clinical information or exploring opportunities to work together, we’re here to help.

Our experienced team works closely with hospitals, community nursing teams, hospices, GPs, therapists, social care, education and other professionals across Liverpool and the surrounding region.
Together, we aim to ensure families receive coordinated care, clear communication and the support they need, without having to repeat their story.
