Hospice Care Week 2023
From 9-15 October 2023, Hospice Care Week is a chance to highlight the important work we do for our patients, their loved ones and our community as a whole.
This year's theme is #WeAreHospiceCare so over the next few days we will be taking the opportunity to share some of our very own inspiring stories through a staff Q&A, highlighting some of our important services and exploring some of our recent service stats.
From clinical staff to our admin and retail colleagues, volunteers to maintenance, housekeeping and gardening, as well as our Board of Governors and Committee Members, each and every one of our Hospice family play a vital role in ensuring we are here for you. We are Hospice Care.
Get to know us!
