Clear and compassionate information helps people make sense of paediatric palliative care and the support available for the whole family. Caring Together was developed to provide this understanding and support.

The booklet outlines the choices that may be available, how to involve children in decisions, and what to expect when it comes to communication, information and support.

Caring Together also provides space to pause, reflect, ask questions and have important conversations.

Easy English: This version uses simple words, short sentences, and supportive images to explain key ideas on every page. It is perfect for anyone who prefer easy English, visual learners, or those wanting a gentle introduction that avoids overwhelming detail.
