24/7 Palliative Care Advice Line

Support is just a phone call away for palliative patients and their carer’s

Their telephone number is: 01606 555489

All the information relating to this service is on their website: St Luke’s Hospice Cheshire – Helping people to live the life they can (slhospice.co.uk)

The Little Orange Book

The Little Orange Book was published to give practical information about common childhood conditions, after research showed that clearer information could help reduce unnecessary attendances at A&E.

The Little Orange Book helps parents and carers to recognise and respond to a range of common illnesses and points to the most appropriate service if you need further support.

The book contains advice and tips on how to manage common illnesses and problems that babies and young children often experience in the first five years of their lives. There is also important information on more serious conditions and what to look out for.
