A journey of special memories
One afternoon can help create memories that last forever.
The TLC Ambulance helps children in palliative care and their families create meaningful moments beyond the hospital.
Each journey is carefully planned and hosted by the TLC for Kids team in collaboration with Ambulance Victoria. Skilled volunteer paramedics help ensure every trip is delivered safely, comfortably and with genuine compassion, allowing families to focus on being together.
Whether it is a day at the beach, a visit to the zoo, or one final trip home surrounded by loved ones, each experience is designed to bring calm, connection and joy when time is limited.
