If a life will be short, let us fill it with joy! Our summer campaign to bring more smiles to young people living with a life-limiting condition.
Gifts For Good
Recent times have led us to look at new ways to support some of the county’s most vulnerable people and continue to provide compassionate palliative and end of life care. Gifts for Good acts as our hospice wish list. It consists of both everyday requirements to offer an outstanding service to the local area; and elements that will help patients and their families to make the most of the precious time they have together.
“Their capacity to care is amazing … I cannot say enough good things about you all. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.”
We know that the call for hospice care will rise in the near future, so we want to build a service that can grow enough to offer specialist support to everyone who may need us. Today, you can make all the difference to their tomorrows.
There are a variety of different Gifts for Good that you can buy for the hospice all ranging in price. From outdoor furniture for patients to be able to enjoy with their loved ones; to specialist nursing care, making sure patients get the comfort, treatment and support they need. Any gift you can afford will bring warmth and comfort at the most troubling times and we are very appreciative of our supporter’s kindness.
