(232)

Birmingham Hospice is the primary provider of adult hospice care in Birmingham. We deliver expert palliative and end of life care to local people living with a terminal diagnosis - at our hospice sites, in the community and in patients' own homes. We are committed to improving the quality of life for people living with life-limiting illnesses, as well as supporting their families and loved ones. We believe that anyone with a terminal diagnosis deserves to live well and make the very most of the time that remains. We care for around 670 patients on average every day across our services. Our mission is, and always will be, to help people from all communities access the care of their choice at the end of life. We are not fully funded by the NHS or government, and we expect it to cost around £19 million to run our services this year; 42% of this must be covered through voluntary income such as fundraising activity, income from our shops and voluntary donations.

At both sites, you can tour our Inpatient Units and Living Well Centres, as well facilities such as family rooms, counselling rooms, our Hive Cafes and Reception areas.

An inspirational volunteer whose bubbly personality has lit up The Hive café has thanked Birmingham Hospice for making her feel so welcome.

Katie Rowland, who has Down’s Syndrome, helps at the café based in the Erdington site once a week.

Volunteering has helped her become a more confident communicator and developed a range of skills, including managing payments, monitoring fridge temperatures. Katie also successfully passed the Level 2 food hygiene course.

“I love coming to talk to everyone, it’s such a friendly place,” said Katie about the hospice.

“I feel really happy coming to the hospice and I would love to come every single day.”

Well done to Birmingham Hospice’s inspirational Personal Health Budget (PHB) Team, who have made a difference to one of our patients and their young family this Christmas.

They worked with a range of other teams across the hospice and externally to find a sleigh-full of essential items, gifts and festive treats to ensure this lovely family received a Yuletide lift when they needed it the most.

PHB provides support in the form of goods, services and personal experiences which can make a world of difference to people at the end of their lives and their families.

Our Living Well Centre patients at Erdington and Selly Park recently enjoyed a special carol service held by Jane and Andrew, our Spiritual Care volunteers.

It was a lovely festive celebration, filled with favourite hymns as well as poems and prayers.

Andrew said: "We've done two services in the Living Well Centre, with a nice collection of people - regular attendees [of LWC], plus a couple of people from the Inpatient Unit as well. We're delighted to come in here and share a little bit of the joy of Christmas with the patients."

A special larger than life advent calendar has been spreading Christmas joy to the Inpatient Unit (IPU) Team at Selly Park. 🎁

As the centrepiece of the IPU’s festive decorations, this fantastic festive feature is made up of giant number boxes which build up to December 25th.

Each date includes the names of several members of the team, who then select a ticket from a lucky dip and collect a thoughtful gift bag with the corresponding number.

The calendar was the idea of kind-hearted team member Julie Cray.

Kerry Millard, Birmingham Hospice’s Head of Clinical Services – Inpatient/SPUR, said: “The advent calendar was a wonderful idea which has made everyone in our team feel truly valued this Christmas."
