Martin House Children’s Hospice Yorkshire Coming Together for THE BUILD.

Halfway to Our Goal – Thanks to You! 💛

Since launching THE BUILD in April 2024, our amazing supporters across Yorkshire have come together to raise an incredible £800,000—bringing us nearly halfway to our £2 million target! 🎉

This incredible generosity is helping us transform Martin House Children’s Hospice, ensuring we can continue to care for children, young people, and families who need us most—both now and for years to come.

Yorkshire Coming Together for THE BUILD

People from all over the region have been getting creative and working hard to fundraise. A huge shoutout to Ewemake Skipton, who have been knitting since January and raised over £2,600 at their Yarndale Festival stall!

And in Atwick, East Yorkshire, Patricia Whitehead rallied her whole village to take on The BIG Challenge—from scarecrow festivals to coffee mornings, their efforts brought in an amazing £900.

There’s so many ways you can get involved!

Why THE BUILD Matters

For families like Lyndsey and Kevin Chand, parents of twins Ruby and Sophia, THE BUILD is a game-changer.

“Martin House has been a lifeline for us. The new facilities, like piped oxygen and a sensory room, will make such a difference to our girls. It’s a safe, engaging space where they can truly relax and enjoy new experiences.” – Lyndsey Chand

What’s Next?

Phase One (children’s wing) is set to be completed early 2025
Phase Two (teenagers’ wing, wellbeing & education centre) will follow

And we need your help to get us to the finish line!

Join the BIG Challenge!

In 2025, we’re launching a series of exciting BIG Challenges to help reach our goal! Whether it’s walking your dog, hitting a fitness goal, or giving up a guilty pleasure, there’s a challenge for everyone to take part in and make a difference.
