Welcome to James Hopkins Trust

Established in 1989 we provide care for babies and children up to the age of 5 who have a life limiting or life threatening condition while supporting their families.

We currently support over 100 children in Gloucestershire.

Since 1989 James Hopkins Trust has helped well over 600 children and their families in every corner of Gloucestershire, our free nursing respite can be night or day in the family home or at our purpose built multi-sensory respite centre and gardens called Kites Corner.

We are here to create very special, lasting memories at Kites Corner, which is filled with love and laughter.
