Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the Children and Young People’s Hospice Grant for 2024-25 will be ring-fenced.

In June 2023, NHS England confirmed that it would be renewing the Children and Young People’s Hospice Grant for 2024/25, once again allocating £25 million grant funding for children’s hospices in England. NHS England will communicate further details regarding the process for the grant allocations later this year.
