We need your help to fill our beds.<br />

23 beds for tamariki to stay during<br />
times of whānau stress or crisis. On<br />
average just 17 of these beds are filled<br />
due to resourcing constraints.<br />
Every empty bed is a missed<br />
opportunity to support a child in need.<br />
Donate today to give Canterbury<br />
tamariki a safe place to sleep.<br />
Cholmondeley Children’s Centre provides<br />
short term emergency or planned respite care<br />
for tamariki when they need extra support due<br />
to complications at home.<br />
Cholmondeley is an independent charity<br />
and costs just under $3,000,000 per year to<br />
run. 20% of this figure is met by Government<br />
funding, and the remaining 80% comes from<br />
the generous support of the Canterbury<br />
community.<br />
