Our Hospitality Carts

Family stays comforted and close with the little things that make big days easier.

Why family stays

During long hospital days, small moments of comfort can make a big difference. Hospitality Carts bring those moments right to the bedside—offering comfort, support and kind conversation from our volunteers and delivering essential items that help families stay close to their ill or injured child without needing to step away. Stocked with practical items, gentle comforts and needed distractions, they offer a little lift exactly when it’s needed most. By easing the load and brightening the day, Hospitality Carts help families feel supported, stay connected, and face each new moment together.

How family stays

Our many Hospitality Carts across Australia are packed with essential supplies and comforting items such as light refreshments and personal products for parents and loved ones. Carts also carry needed distractions: reading and activity books, toys, games and other goodies to keep children entertained while they’re in hospital. Operated by our volunteers around the ward, our Hospitality Carts help families to stay close and comforted, by their child’s bedside, where they are needed the most.

Make a Difference for Families & Children

Parents don’t know when their child will need medical help. But they should know they can always access the care they need. And with your help, we can strive to support them all throughout their journey.
