Mick's story
I cannot tell you the gratitude and appreciation my family have for Ashgate Hospice – all the staff and volunteers who make it such a warm, happy, caring place.
We were both so impressed with the care the hospice gave, not just to my wife Glennis, but to our whole family.
They took us all under their wing in those final weeks – and they gave us precious time together that was as special as it could have possibly been.
Chrissie, Healthcare Assistant on the Inpatient Unit
I love my job. I’ve cared for people for 32 years now, the last 15 here at the hospice. It’s a privilege to play a part in such a private and vulnerable time of someone’s life; we treat everyone like they are our own family.
Sadly, every life must come to an end. But with your help, we can give our patients peace, comfort and dignity in their final moments.
Please give what you can
We understand that not everybody is able to donate today. You can find out about other ways you can help support the hospice at this time. Alternatively, our Fundraising Team are always happy to speak to you and answer any questions you may have. Please don’t hesitate to give us a call on 01246 567250 or email fundraising@ashgatehospice.org.uk.
