Story

The recent coronavirus outbreak has changed our workload at the Hospice, but it certainly has not diminished. Our team at the Hospice have been working tirelessly to ensure that we continue to be there for local people with life-limiting illnesses and their families. But this hasn't been without its challenges. Visiting to patients on our In Patient Unit has been severely restricted, which has been incredibly difficult for patients and their families, and for our team to support. The Living Well Centre and Family Support Team has continued to work with people over the phone. These calls have reinforced to us how important supporting health and wellbeing is. The other impact of the pandemic has been in the loss of income. We have had to cancel all but two of our fundraising events and our community fundraising has halved. The stark reality is that we don't know what the future holds for fundraising and the money coming in is likely to stop. Now, more than ever we need your help.
