Engaging Communities

•We are always looking for new ways we

can support patients and their families.

•If you have any thoughts or suggestions,

then please let us know.

Hospices were originally resting places for the weary traveller. They still are. But more, they add quality and dignity to the lives of those who visit,

ensuring that, if required, the remainder of the journey is not undertaken alone.
