The Flamingo children’s hospice will accommodate up to eight children and young people at its Fällanden site in the canton of Zurich. From the end of 2025, families will be able to benefit from this unique offer on a beautiful plot close to Lake Greifensee and with a view of the Alpine panorama. The children’s hospice will be a special place to relieve stress and “recharge your batteries” – with the opportunity to exchange ideas with others who are equally affected: A place where people live, laugh and play, but where dying and mourning also have their place.

The holistic care and support combined with the appropriate infrastructure should enable those affected to take a break from their exhausting everyday lives. The focus is not only on the care of the sick child, but also on the needs of the parents and siblings. The Flamingo children’s hospice offers a unique stay for the whole family:

holistic | relieving | unique.

The Flamingo Children’s Hospice was initiated by the“Stiftung Kinderhospiz Schweiz” Currently, intensive work is being done on the realisation of the project and the broad “network” is being expanded.
