Sunshine Coast Hospice

We support people with life-limiting illnesses and their loved ones. We’re also working with VCH to open the Coast’s first dedicated hospice in 2027.

Through trained volunteers, we offer free grief, bereavement and advance care planning services. Coast Hospice has been providing compassionate care since 1987. Our volunteers offer companionship and bereavement support at home, in hospital and in comfortable private hospice rooms here on the Sunshine Coast. Hospice provides extensive volunteer training and support in bereavement and vigil care to allow us to continue to provide the best services possible. Together we make a difference; together we create a compassionate community.

✨ On this day, and every day, you are not alone! ✨

Recognizing that Valentine's Day could be challenging for those experiencing grief, we compiled five of our favourite ways to honour and celebrate our loved ones. Feel free to include one or all of them in your day or use them as inspiration to create your own tradition. 💐

1: Write your loved one a letter
2: Enjoy their favourite trail
3: Enjoy your loved one's favourite meal
4: Enjoy their favourite book or author
5: Light a candle in reflection of their love

💙 Remember that grief and love are naturally linked and can be described as two sides of the same coin. You are never alone in your grief; we are here for you. 💛

Grief is not something to “get over”; it’s something to understand, carry, and make sense of in your own way.

At Sunshine Coast Hospice, we are honoured to provide compassionate grief support and resources that help individuals explore what grief means to them. No one has to navigate this journey alone. 💙

Contact our Client Services Coordinator today to see how our programs can support your journey.
