The Little Orange Book
The Little Orange Book was published to give practical information about common childhood conditions, after research showed that clearer information could help reduce unnecessary attendances at A&E.
The Little Orange Book helps parents and carers to recognise and respond to a range of common illnesses and points to the most appropriate service if you need further support.
The book contains advice and tips on how to manage common illnesses and problems that babies and young children often experience in the first five years of their lives. There is also important information on more serious conditions and what to look out for.

Palliative Care
24/7 Palliative Care Advice Line
Support is just a phone call away for palliative patients and their carers
We know how worrying and isolating it can feel to care for a loved one at home, especially when services typically only tun Monday to Friday.
To bridge this gap, St Luke’s Hospice have introduced a new weekend palliative care service as part of their overall ‘St Luke’s at home’ initiative.
Their telephone number is: 01606 555489
All the information relating to this service is on their website: St Luke’s Hospice Cheshire – Helping people to live the life they can (slhospice.co.uk)
