Zoe’s Place is a highly unique venture aimed at providing much needed, palliative, end of life and respite care services for children and families that simply cannot be provided elsewhere in Queensland.
Zoe’s Place has completed Stage 1 of its development at a cost of over $1.5 million built on land leased at a peppercorn rent from the Queensland Government.
The building of Stage One has been made possible through the generosity and hard work of many committed individuals and the support of businesses and the community.
Stage 2 will allow us to expand the number of families we can support. It will be a 6 bedroom hospice facility with a multi sensory room, a playroom, computer room and a spcialised end-of-life care facility with family accommodation.
Stage 3 will be an adolescent and young people unit, especially designed to cater for the needs of this particular age demographic.
We have completed the plans for these two stages and will shortly be launching a fundraising campaign to raise the $2million needed to complete the complex.
As research and practice shape the development of Zoe’s Place we are planning to roll out a number of Zoe’s Place hospices throughout the State.
Zoe’s Place, along with the existing two other children’s hospices in Sydney and Melbourne will become a tried and tested model in Australia for children’s hospice care services.
