Defined by each person’s need, our free care for people managing, or recovering from, serious illness has many forms – care at the Hospice, at Home, or in our Health and Wellbeing Centre which offers courses, workshops, clinics and therapies.
Over 1,200 volunteers are vital in helping delivery our free care. We need to raise over £6 million annually to fund that care.
