This is Hospice care…💚

When you’re caring for your mum and don’t know what to say next - we help you find the words.

When you feel the weight of tomorrow on your shoulders – we remind you of the joy in today.
This is hospice care.

The nurse who shows up when you're overwhelmed. The volunteer who sits with dad so you can sleep.

Somewhere in your life - in your family, your friendships, your community - hospice care is already making a difference in ways you might not expect.

But this incredible support wouldn't exist without you.
Gifts in Wills fund one in seven people we care for, helping ensure care at the end of life is here for everyone who needs it, both now and in the future.

Consider leaving a gift in your Will and help hospice care live on for all, for now, forever.

Happy Pancake Day! 🥞

Our Kitchen team have had a ‘flipping’ great morning preparing pancakes for patients and staff!

Did you know marking Shrove Tuesday with pancakes dates back to the 15th-century and is always observed the day before Lent and 47 days before Eater Sunday – best wishes to all observing Lent this year. 💚

For a second year, we're proud to stand with over 125 hospices across England, Scotland, and Wales, for the campaign, brought together by Hospice UK. 💚

Here at Wakefield Hospice, Gifts in Wills play a crucial role in our funding model and helping hospices like ours survive and grow, without which we simply wouldn’t be able to open our doors and be here for patients and families at a time they need us most.

Together with your support, we can protect the future of hospice care. 🏡

🗣“Hospices only support people with cancer”

The Truth 💚
Although hospices do support those living with cancer, we also care for people with many different life-shortening conditions — such as heart failure, motor neurone disease, lung disease, COPD and other progressive illnesses.

Hospice care is about quality of life, whatever the diagnosis.
