Our hearts are overflowing after the Hospice Christmas Carols, proudly sponsored by Glenvale Pharmacy!

A massive thank you to everyone who joined us for an evening of festive fun and Christmas cheer. Your smiles, singing and support made the whole event sparkle.

A special shout-out to the Toowoomba Municipal Brass Band and High Altitude Harmony for filling the night with incredible music. Your performances brought so much joy and truly made the event unforgettable. 🎶💛

To our volunteers, donors, supporters and behind-the-scenes legends — thank you for giving your time, energy and kindness. Events like this simply wouldn’t happen without you.

We’re so grateful to every family, friend, neighbour and guest who attended and joined in the carols to celebrate with us.

We cannot wait to do this all again next year! 🎄

💜💚In Partnership with our Community 💛🩷

The Toowoomba Hospice was honoured to be one of the beneficiaries of the 2025 Toowoomba Exhibition Gardens. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the organisers, garden owners, the many volunteers, and every visitor who supported this wonderful community tradition.

We are delighted to be one of the eight beneficiaries to receive an incredible $8,500. This generous contribution directly supports the compassionate end-of-life care we provide to our community.

Thank you to everyone involved for your ongoing dedication, hard work, and commitment to helping local charities thrive. - TH

❤️In Partnership with Our Community💚

Recently, the Historical Motor Cycle Club of Queensland Inc. (HMCCQ) – Toowoomba Area rode into the Toowoomba Hospice carpark for a quick stop on their weekly coffee ride.

Our Hospice Chairman, Graham Barron OAM, and Committee Member, Graham Healy, welcomed the riders and thanked them for their generous donation. They also reflected on our long partnership — one that began even before the Hospice was built, when the Club contributed to help make our Hospice a reality.

A big thank you to the HMCCQ Toowoomba Area for your ongoing support. Your kindness and generosity are truly appreciated! 👏👍🫶

Today, we pause to honour the courage, sacrifice and service of those who have fought and fallen for our freedom.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
🌹 We will remember them.

Lest we forget.
