You will find links to our application form and a brochure of the technology we provide below. Please take the time to review both thoroughly, speak to your colleagues, think about your services and the children and families you support before telling us about the equipment that will make the biggest difference to you. Applications open 5th February, and close on 5th March 2025.
Lifelites Technology Package Application
Lifelites: Who are we?
Congratulations on being one of the lucky children’s palliative care services invited to apply for an exciting new package of technology this year!
With 25 years’ experience, Lifelites is the only charity providing specialist, sensory and assistive technology to children’s palliative care services across the British Isles. These packages of technology provide the opportunity for children and their families to play, create and communicate, helping them to improve their quality of life and create lasting memories for families to cherish.
Including equipment, training, technical support and project management, each Lifelites package is worth around £60,000 over four years; sometimes significantly more.
Our partnership with you
Once you have submitted your application, we will organise a video consultation to discuss your requirements in more detail. This is our opportunity to fully understand what you do and to ensure that we are providing the right technology to support the children in your care. Our 2025 consultations will take place in April.
Subject to successful application, we will arrange a date to come and install your new package, train your teams and give families a first taste of the technology! Installations usually happen between September and March.
We pledge to maintain your technology over the course of our four-year partnership. This could include telephone advice; a site visit by our Technical Support Service; or replacement of equipment if faulty.
To maximise the impact of our support, we provide high quality training across multiple channels to ensure your staff feel confident using the technology for the best outcomes of the children in your care. We will deliver initial 1 to 2 day training which will ideally take place in-person, at your premises. We can provide top-up training sessions for staff subject to demand.
Getting started!
The deadline for 2025 applications is 5 March 2025.
Accessing the latest technology begins with the submission of your application form. This can be found below, alongside a link to our tech brochure, which contains all the information you will need about the technology we offer. Please consult this carefully before completing the application form.
Due to tight timescales, if we do not receive your application by 5 March 2025, we may not be able to include you in the projects delivered in 2025/26.
