Facilities
All rooms at Sunshine House are fully equipped to meet the needs of the children and young people we care for. Each room has been designed to provide a relaxed and calm atmosphere.
Forget-Me-Not Room
The Forget-Me-Not Room is a purpose built room for children and young people to spend time when they have reached the end of their lives. This room has a unique atmosphere that allows families to stay in an adjoining room with their children for as long as they need, to say their goodbyes in their own time.
