Bear Cottage

Bear Cottage is the first children's hospice in NSW and is located on Manly Beach. It is a place where children with terminal illnesses and their families can stay from time to time and receive rest and medical care in a home-like environment. It is associated with Westmead Hospital however, it is run solely on donations from the community.

KordaMentha has helped to raise valuable funds in order to provide palliative care and support for children with life limiting illnesses and their families.  

 

In addition to providing palliative care facilities for children, Bear Cottage contains the amenities of a comfortable home, with 10 children's bedrooms, family accommodation and a quiet room. There are also areas for recreation including a spa room, multi-sensory room and teens' room. Families do not pay to stay at Bear Cottage.

 

Bear Cottage was established entirely by the community and continues to rely on the community for funding.
