This year marks 40 years of Compton providing countless moments of care and support to families across the region who have been affected by incurable illnesses.

Since supporting our first patient in January 1982, we've had the privilege of being part of thousands of peoples palliative care journeys.

Providing people with the care, support, and tools they need to live a good quality life, as well as being there for families and loved ones throughout the duration of a persons illness and beyond, has been at the heart of everything we do since day one.

Over the last four decades we have provided medical and clinical support to help ensure people are as pain free as possible and manage the physical changes to their bodies. We have helped families negotiate finances, care plans and all the lifestyle and environmental changes that come with a terminal diagnosis. And we have offered emotional and spiritual support to patients and families, providing a safe and personalised space for people to cope with the circumstances they find themselves in.

We do all of this with the aim of making life a little easier and aspire to help families find a little peace in every day
