How we're funded
Why we need your support
Our shops and coffee shops
Shopping with us or donating items for us to sell helps fund our compassionate care.
We offer a wide range of complementary therapies to improve your sense of wellbeing and quality of life.
Complementary therapies are treatments you can have on top of your regular medical care or on their own. They may be helpful in treating symptoms like pain and some of the undesirable effects of treatments. They can also help to restore energy levels and reduce stress levels and anxiety.
We can provide our treatments in our therapy rooms at the hospice, on the Inpatient Unit, at our Community Hub and virtually.
We can also support you if you are recently bereaved.
The treatments we can offer include:
- Massages
- Aromatherapy
- Reflexology
- Indian head massages
- Holistic facials
- Reiki
- Relaxation sessions
