Hospices: Children
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 13 April 2026 to Question 123423 on Hospices: Children, how much has NHS England advised integrated care boards to give to each children's hospice in 2026/27 from the £80 million of NHS funding allocated for children’s hospices over the next three years.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
NHS England has informed all integrated care boards of their allocation for children and young people’s hospices for 2026/27, with a total allocation of approximately £27 million. The Department is not yet in a position to share those individual allocations publicly.
A similar value, adjusted for pay inflation, will be made available in each of the subsequent two years, 2027/28 and 2028/29. Communications regarding future allocations will be sent once the 2026/27 process is complete.
