Foyle Hospice provides palliative care services for patients with cancer and other life-limiting illnesses while supporting their families and loved ones across the Western Health and Social Trust area in Northern Ireland. We improve the quality of life of patients and support their families.

Story

As a family,we wanted to commemorate our wonderful parents Dr Cyril and Nurse Rita Harkin,who passed away almost 6 years ago.There is not a day that goes by without remembering them and appreciating how lucky we were to have them as parents.

They met in the City and County hospital in Derry 65 years ago and spent the rest of their lives caring for others to the very end.Our eldest sister Dr Karen ,works at the Foyle Hospice in Derry which relies solely on charitable donations.

One project she is particularly keen for us to support is the provision of a garden room within the grounds of the hospice ,where children who are losing or have lost their parents can go for counselling and support. Raising the funds for this would be a fitting tribute to Mum and Dad , as our own family home in Draperstown (an amazing place ),was a refuge and sanctuary for so many over the years.

Any donation ,however small will be received with huge thanks.

With love and gratitude 

Karen,Andy,Orla ,Nuala and Cliona xxx
