We provide specialist end-of-life care, and a wide range of support services, to over 1,200 people who are living with a life-limiting illness in the Wigan Borough. Many patients are cared for in their own homes, although we also care for people living in care homes and in our In-Patient Unit.

Story

All money raised for the Wigan and Leigh Hospice will go towards their ‘Hospice in your Home Service’, which is supporting patients and their families in my constituency, Leigh, and across the Wigan borough.

The ‘Hospice in your Home’ service takes the skills, ethos and practical nursing care associated with the Wigan and Leigh Hospice into the home environment, seven days a week. It is provided by a small team of Qualified Nurses and Healthcare Assistants and aims to offer more time with patients and to give practical support and nursing care to patients and their carers.  

 After testing in four pilot areas, with your support the Wigan and Leigh Hospice is looking to roll out the service across the local community.

 

Thank you for your support and generosity.
