Sarah’s story
“There have been a lot of changes and developments to help us manage the current Covid-19 outbreak. Anybody who enters the main hospice building is being screened and temperature checked before they enter, we have restricted visitors to the hospice and any staff that can possibly work offsite are doing so. Our main priority has been infection control and making sure our patients, their families, our staff and volunteers and the wider community are safe.”

Annette’s Story
“I feel proud when I know I’ve done everything I possibly can for a patient and their family and when they know they can count on me to answer any of their concerns.”
Mike’s Story
“I enjoy every single day. There isn’t a day I don’t want to get out of bed. We’ve now got 30 volunteers and three paid staff, and I can honestly say that with all their help, the shop is a real success.”
Sandi’s Story
“Some things we do as healthcare assistants and nurses don’t seem special to us, but they are very special to the family. We always make sure that we take the time to do special little things for patients and families.”
