Suwa Arana - A Place for Healing

The First Paediatric Palliative Care Centre in Sri Lanka together with Paediatric Housing

Specialised care, including family housing, for
Children with cancer.

“Suwa Arana”

Nothing seems scarier to children facing a serious illness than not having their mother and father close by for love and support. Long distances, financial and several other constraints, often prevent parents from providing their precious little ones with the best possible medical treatment, including a place to stay. Providing an ideal environment that stimulates inherent healing in human beings, is the noble Vision of Suwa Arana. To give accommodation, food, counselling and relaxation therapy to ease stress of someone being terminally ill through a comprehensive programme of highly professional support and care is Suwa Arana’s thoughtful and spiritual, palliative care initiative. Supporting the Fighters, Admiring the Survivours, Honouring the Taken and NEVER GIVING UP are
Suwa Arana’s activities in a nutshell. For all info and Donations:

Suwa Arana was created to offer more than a place to stay. It is a space where children and families can experience comfort, dignity and moments of normal life while navigating a difficult journey. Every corner is designed to remind families that they are not alone.

There is a quiet rhythm behind every meal at Suwa Arana — washing, preparing, cooking and working together so families can sit down to something nourishing and familiar. Care often begins long before it is seen.
