Burbeck and Shooting Star Children’s Hospices Unite in Collaboration

Leading interiors and property staging company and LPF Members, Burbeck Interiors announce collaboration with Shooting Star Children’s Hospices to refurbish a family flat to create two new consultation rooms at its Guildford, Surrey hospice - Christopher’s.

Burbeck Interiors have designed, procured and installed a range of donated furniture to create a warm and calming space for families to use; carefully selecting furniture due to their suitability in both a clinical and family friendly environment. Items include sofas which can convert into beds; in case families need to stay at the hospices at short notice.

Grace Wilcocks, Head of Commercial at Burbeck Interiors commented, “The work that the team do at Shooting Star Children’s Hospices is awe inspiring, they provide support to so many families during their time of need. As long-term fundraisers for the charity, we are delighted to be able to use our interior design skills to furnish a space that supports their strategy to extend their bereavement services to additional areas of London, by providing them with the additional counselling space. As a family run business, and as parents ourselves, it is a privilege to be able to support families who are facing the unimaginable.’

Shooting Star Children’s Hospices cares for families with a baby, child or young person with a life limiting condition, or whose child has died, across Surrey, south-west London and north-west London. They support families from diagnosis, to end of life, and throughout bereavement, with a range of nursing, practical, emotional, and medical care. Their specialist care and support is free of charge and available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Ellie Constable, Corporate Relationship Manager at Shooting Star shared, “We are so incredibly grateful to have support from Burbeck Interiors with this project. They have been brilliant supporters of ours for a few years now, doing some fantastic fundraising, and now using their skills and expertise to help us transform this space so that it is a safe, welcoming and warm environment for the families that we support. The need for additional counselling space has been driven by our new strategy - to extend our bereavement service to support the families of babies or children who have died suddenly in Surrey, south-west London and north-west London, and having this beautifully designed space will help us to achieve this. We truly value our partnership with Burbeck, and look forward to seeing how else we can work together going forward”.
