Palliative care for children and young people (CYP) with life-limiting conditions is an active and total approach to care, from the point of diagnosis or recognition, throughout the child’s life, death and beyond. It embraces physical, emotional, social and spiritual elements and focuses on the enhancement of quality of life for the CYP and support for their family. It includes the management of distressing symptoms, provision of short breaks and care through death and bereavement. Together for Short Lives (2013)
