I whole-heartedly support this petition for the William Slater House to be leased for use as a Paediatric Palliative Centre of Excellence. This facility is sorely needed and professional and holistic services for children and their families in need of palliative care is critical.

Wonderful project! I'd like to be a volunteer. I am a qualified reflexologist and know the benefit of giving this holistic treatment to young patients.

There is perhaps no greater trauma than losing a child or having a very sick child. It seems a basic human right to provide a place where terminally ill kids can receive appropriate care and have space to be with their families.

It needs to happen. Having your child die before you must be the most devastating thing a human being can experience. Anything that softens that blow is good.

Sounds like an excellent plan and a very necessary one as the government cannot cope with all the outpatient care.

Absolutely necessary to do this. Too many government assets are being inappropriately used.

I heartily endorse and support this venture - quality paediatric palliative care greatly needs to expand in Cape Town and the rest of the country.
