Sarah's Star is a charity supporting people living with incurable and palliative illnesses, as well as their families, friends and health professionals.
We provide a wide range of holistic therapies including meditation, massage, reiki, creative therapies, pilates and yoga. We also host death cafes and talks to normalise the conversation around palliative and end-of-life care.
We work with local hospitals, schools and universities to reframe these topics and try to alleviate some of the fear that can be associated when diagnosed.
We aim to:
- Provide a safe space where people can express themselves freely by talking or sitting quietly
- Create a community where people can share their experiences and get help from other people going through similar experiences
- Provide access to holistic therapies to create a sense of calm, peace and serenity
- Educate people about palliative care, helping them to recognise that it is not to be feared
- Create a network of strong community partnerships
