About Solace

Solace is a voluntary organisation registered as a Trust under the Charitable Societies Act of Kerala. It supports children living with long-term illnesses and their families through medical, financial, social and emotional care.

It began as a Play Therapy Unit beside the Leukemia Ward of Government Medical College, Thrissur. From that single room it has grown into a support network reaching families across the state.
