The Foundation provides this accommodation rent free and the only charge incurred is a booking fee of £85 per family. We also provide other help, as is required, in total confidence.

Where possible an experienced representative from Daisy Chain will visit each family during their stay with us.

We have created at Kensington Court a magical place to stay and each apartment has its own theme! • The Bunnies' Burrow • The Enchanted Forest • The Planet Suite • Animal Kingdom • The Wizard's Wardrobe • Seaside Dreams • Bluebell Wood • The Builder's Yard • The Penthouse

Referrals come from Hospices, Hospitals, Social Workers and other Agencies and are welcome from anywhere in the UK.
