Our Registered Clinical Counsellors and trained Volunteers provide professional services such as companionship, counselling, support groups, relaxation therapy, children's grief counselling, and more.

We were proud to see our Executive Director, Amanda McNally, representing Peace Arch Hospice Society as a panelist at the Surrey White Rock Board of Trade’s Women Who Lead International Women’s Day celebration. ♀️💐

Aligned with this year’s theme, Give to Gain, the event highlighted how mentorship, collaboration, and shared opportunity help move gender equality forward. When women invest in one another - through time, knowledge, and support - progress accelerates for everyone.

At Peace Arch Hospice Society, we see this spirit every day in the remarkable women who power our work. From compassionate staff to dedicated volunteers, they bring care, strength, and wisdom to supporting individuals and families through grief and end-of-life journeys. 🕊️

Together, they remind us that when women lift one another up, entire communities are strengthened. 💪💓

The original Lion King movie 🦁🌅 served as our inspiration for our first Children’s Grief Camp of 2026. Over two days, eleven children experiencing grief from the loss of a loved one had the opportunity to come together and be with peers, have conversations around death, dying, and grief, learn ways to cope with big emotions, and have fun. 💛 We crafted lion masks, grubs, and guiding stars ⭐ in memory of our special people. We had the chance to test our skills and wisdoms in station games and a safari scavenger hunt 🐾, and we got to host two amazing guests: Face painter Mackenzie (MJC Artistry - Face Painting Vancouver) 🎨 and Drum Master Kwasi 🥁 who both brought art, joy, and smiles to the children’s faces.

A deep thank you to three special women who crafted and donated beautiful items for the children: Lion themed tote bags and Comfort Critters 🧵 from Tammy, handmade bunnies 🐰 from Denise, and lion rocks 🪨 from Audrey. Each item added more magic ✨ for this special weekend!

And finally, this camp would not have been possible without our amazing volunteers who show up and give their incredible energy, attention, love, and wisdom to the Camp. Thank you! 🙏💫

On Pink Shirt Day, we’re thinking about the young people who walk through our doors. 👚

This chair represents someone who deserves to feel safe, heard, and respected.

In our children and youth grief programs, every seat holds a story – of loss, change, confusion, anger, love. For many young people, those feelings don’t always have words. What they need most is emotional safety.

Pink Shirt Day is about standing up to bullying and choosing kindness, respect, and inclusion. At PAHS, we create spaces where children and youth can show up as they are – without judgment or pressure, free to be themselves. 💙🕊️

Today, we invite everyone to lift up a young person, offer a kind word, or simply listen. That’s how we make every space safer. 🫶

You’ll find a wide range of titles, including general grief, specific types of loss, and self-care resources.
