Welcome to Shooting Star Unwrapped, the official podcast from Shooting Star Children’s Hospices, hosted by Executive Vice-President Karen Sugarman MBE.


Over a cup of tea, Karen sits down with some of the charity’s best-known Vice-Presidents, Patrons and celebrity supporters for heartfelt, honest and inspiring conversations about their remarkable lives and careers, as well as their personal connection to Shooting Star. Expect laughter, fond memories and stories you may not hear anywhere else.

And there’s another reason to listen. Each guest donates an exclusive, often money-can’t-buy item to our Virtual Charity Shop, giving you the chance to bid on something truly special. Every penny raised helps Shooting Star continue to provide vital care and support for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families.
