Donate your Holiday Home

Become a Donor

Our holiday homeowners are at the heart of TimeOut.

By opening your holiday home to a family living with incurable illness, you can give them something incredibly valuable – time together, away from the appointments, treatment and everyday demands that can come with illness.

A TimeOut Stay gives families the chance to relax, reconnect, enjoy being together and create special memories. And because you decide when and how often you donate, you can make a difference in a way that works for you.

Why TimeOut

For many of us, our holiday home is a place where we go to relax, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy a break from everyday life. By donating a stay through TimeOut, you can share that same experience with a family who is going through an incredibly difficult time.

Your donation can give another family the chance to get away together, enjoy some time without the usual pressures of illness and create memories they’ll treasure for years to come. It’s a simple way to share something you already have and make a real difference to another family.

How it Works

We aim to make donating your holiday home as simple and flexible as possible.

Register your holiday home online with TimeOut, providing some basic details, including photos, location, sleeping arrangements and any preferences around when and how often you’d like to donate. You can tell us which months work for you, how many stays you’d like to offer each year and the maximum length of a stay. Our team will then give you a call to talk through the process and answer any questions you may have.

A person living with Stage 4 or advanced cancer, or another incurable illness, applies for a TimeOut Stay. We check their medical eligibility and confirm the details of everyone in their group. Our team then looks for a suitable property based on the family’s needs, location, group size and requested dates.

If your property looks like a good fit and is available, we’ll contact you with the request. You can accept or decline depending on what works for you and your property.

If you’re happy to accept, we’ll confirm the stay and connect you directly with the recipient. You’ll receive the stay details and the recipient’s contact information, and you can then communicate directly to finalise the details of the stay.

We’ll check in with you and the recipient before the stay and again afterwards to make sure everything goes smoothly.
