Pendleside Hospice

Pendleside Hospice Our first service, a telephone helpline, was provided from a small office in the old Marsden Hospital.
(213)

Pendleside Hospice exists to promote and enhance the quality of life for people with advancing long term and life limiting illnesses, as well as provide support for their families and carers ๐Ÿ’› Local people commenced fundraising in October 1988 to provide hospice care for Burnley and Pendle people diagnosed with cancer and other life limiting-illnesses. A day care service soon followed and we were allocated space at Pendle Community Hospital, whilst fundraising continued to build the Hospice, which opened in 1997. Since then, many thousands of local people have benefitted from our specialist palliative and end-of-life services. We now offer day therapy, specialist physiotherapy, complementary therapies, inpatient care, 24/7 hospice at home, counselling, bereavement support and spiritual care. Pendleside was built โ€œby the people and for the people of Burnley and Pendleโ€; a statement that remains true today. Our vital services are only possible because of the outstanding charitable support of local people, who have given generously to Pendleside over many years. Without that support, the Hospice wouldn't be able to provide care that is relied upon by so many local families at very difficult times in their lives.

"We love you very dearly"

In all of our inpatient rooms, there is a whiteboard where the nursing team writes a welcome message when someone first arrives. Sometimes, like this board, family and friends take over to share their own messages for their loved one.

Itโ€™s the small things that matter most ๐Ÿ’›

Meet the Team Tuesday ๐Ÿ’›

Louisa Mayor โ€“ Head of Income Generation

Louisa leads our Income Generation team, helping to raise over ยฃ5 million per year that allows Pendleside Hospice to provide specialist care across our community. She guides a dedicated team who work across fundraising, retail and lottery to ensure patients and their families receive compassionate, high-quality care when they need it most.

Having grown up in the local area, Louisa is passionate about ensuring the long-term future of Hospice care in our community.

She believes wholeheartedly in our legacy campaign and the vital role Gifts in Wills play in funding compassionate care for local patients and their families which is why she has written her own Will through our Free Will Scheme. For her, it was a meaningful and practical way to support the Hospice.

Louisa said: โ€œHaving put it off for years, thinking it would be complicated and expensive I finally reached out. I encourage anyone wishing to write a Will to get in touch, itโ€™s such an easy and simple process, and it gives you real peace of mind knowing your wishes are taken care of and your loved ones are provided for, all whilst supporting the Hospice."
