Welcome

Welcome to Homes with Heart, a unique organization which lets holiday home owners donate spare weeks in their property to families who desperately need a break – young families where either a child or parent is terminally ill or has a life-limiting disease.

Charities cannot generally accept the offer of a private holiday home because they have no system to manage it. We are the only organization which allows homeowners to ‘bank’ a week and healthcare professionals to ‘withdraw’.  They can refer their families for a stress-free holiday together or for a short respite break, to make the most of remission, to take a break from constant treatment, or to spend some quality family time if the prognosis is poor. We can match each holiday with care and flexibility with YOUR help.
