Custom Heat announces a new partnership with Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW), pledging support for children with life-limiting conditions and their families across the region. 

Custom Heat South West has committed to a comprehensive support programme for CHSW. This initiative will include not only financial contributions but also active fundraising efforts. 

CHSW is a vital lifeline in the region, offering expert care and unwavering support to children and young people facing life-limiting illnesses, as well as their families. The charity operates three state-of-the-art hospices strategically located across the South West, ensuring accessible care for those in need.

James Cane, Business Development Manager for Custom Heat South West said: “We are delighted to be partnering with Children’s Hospice South West. As a family-run business with a growing presence in the South West, we’re committed to supporting our local community. We are really looking forward to developing an exciting partnership in the coming months.”

The partnership will be officially igniting this autumn, where Custom Heat South West will be launching an initiative where 10% of every boiler service fee will be donated to CHSW when customers mention the charity at the time of booking.

Custom Heat South West is also looking to become a member of CHSW’s Business Club; a network of local businesses who share a passion to give back to the local community by supporting CHSW. 

Hayley Wallbank, Regional Partnerships Fundraiser for CHSW said: “We are thrilled to welcome Custom Heat South West as one of local business supporters. . Their commitment to supporting local families in the South West aligns perfectly with our mission. This partnership will help us continue providing essential care and support to children with life-limiting conditions and their families across Cornwall, Devon, and Somerset. We’re excited about the positive impact this collaboration will have on the lives of the families we support”

Lincoln Smith, Managing Director of Custom Heat, added: “As a family-run business, we see our team’s families and communities as an extension of our own. That’s why we’ve chosen Children’s Hospice South West as our charity partner. The charity  provides an essential lifeline for families facing the most challenging times. For us, there is no cause closer to our values than one that cares for children and supports families when they need it most.”

Custom Heat South West offers a range of heating services including installation, servicing, and maintenance of various heating systems, with a focus on renewable technologies such as air source heat pumps and solar thermal systems.

CHSW has three children’s hospices across the South West; Little Bridge House in North Devon, Charlton Farm in North Somerset and Little Harbour in St Austell. The charity is currently supporting more than 500 children and young people who have been diagnosed with a life-limiting illness. The hospices provide those children and young people with a place to visit with their families for short breaks, resilience stays, palliative care as well as end of life care and bereavement support.
