Martin House is a children’s hospice in Wetherby, West Yorkshire, England. It provides care and support to families in which there is a child or children with a short life expectancy. Donations to the hospice provide family-led day-today care for children with life-limiting conditions. Care, such as symptom control, emergency care, respite care and terminal care, is provided at the hospice or the family home. Conditions treated include long term progressive disorders such as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Batten’s Disease and Cystic Fibrosis, and sometimes cancer.
