When our patient Mr Mohammad was asked about his golf experience, he chuckled and cheekily replied, “Of course! I used to go to Warren Golf & Country Club all the time!”

He reminisced about his childhood, when he and his friends would sneak into the club - not to play golf, but to collect lost golf balls from the ponds! They would use the balls for a giant game of Goli, substituting them for marbles. Of course, the golfers would often shout at them to get off the course when they saw the kids hanging out by the pond!

Fast forward to today, and Mr Mohammad had the chance to try golfing at Assisi Hospice, excited to give putting a go!

A big thank you to Josephine & her Golf Volunteers for organising this fun activity and tailoring it to our patients’ needs. The adapted equipment and setup, especially the custom shortened putter for wheelchair-bound patients, made sure everyone could join in and have a blast. Your thoughtfulness truly made this experience special.

This Deepavali, our Day Care patients brought their creativity to life by combining vibrant Rangoli designs with the symbolism of banana leaves. With the support of CPF staff, they had fun using coloured rice and banana leaves to create beautiful decorations that truly captured the festive spirit.

A big thank you to the CPF team for sharing these special moments with our patients and making this Deepavali brighter. 💖

From spotting a massive wetland crocodile resting under a bridge to discovering hidden creatures, excitement filled the air as our Day Care patients embarked on their very first adventure to Rainforest Wild Asia – the newest attraction at Mandai Wildlife Reserve. Accompanied by the incredible Sembcorp staff and supported by oxygen concentrators (for some), our patients explored this breathtaking zoological park along the elevated walkway in their wheelchairs, soaking in stunning views of the lush canopy. They relished every moment as they searched for animals like Malayan tigers, Francois' langurs, and Malayan sun bears in their natural habitats.

Passing by the 220-metre long cave where Blackpink’s Jisoo filmed her music video recently was a starry surprise for the K-Pop fans!

A heartfelt thank you to Sembcorp for making this unforgettable adventure possible and bringing so much joy to our patients!

Forget boring old photo booths! Our Day Care patients just levelled up their reminiscence group session with a quirky twist — a "photo booth" that spits out charming, hand-drawn caricature strips!

This quirky activity is part of our photography-themed reminiscence group, where patients not only reflect on memories from the past but also see how much the world has changed, and how much they still have to offer.

These sessions celebrate their stories, experiences, and personhood — a reminder that illness is just one chapter in their rich and meaningful life journey. 💖

A huge, heartfelt thank you to caricaturist Faizal at Caricature Fun for bringing the smiles and laughter to Assisi with your creative booth! You’ve helped create memories that matter. 🙌🖌️

Grief can feel like an invisible weight — too heavy to carry, too complex to name. Join our counsellors at the Grief Café, which invites you into a safe and compassionate space to explore why grieving can feel so hard, especially when the world expects us to "move on".

Through gentle guidance, relatable stories, and meaningful interaction, you’ll discover ways to honour your pain and the pain of others, soften judgment, and find moments of peace amid sorrow.

The workshops are part of Singapore Hospice Council’s Live Well. Leave Well. Festival 2025.

What makes the Mid-Autumn Festival truly magical? For our patients, it’s the glow of moonlight shared with loved ones, volunteers, and staff as they strolled through the courtyard with lanterns in hand, while lovely music filled the air.

Our Day Care patients were thrilled to carry the lanterns they crafted earlier in a special workshop, with the wonderful support of staff from City Developments Limited. Huge thanks to CDL for bringing this heartwarming celebration to life, and to The TENG Company for the enchanting melodies.

Wishing all our friends a magical Mid-Autumn Festival filled with love, light, and togetherness. 🌕🏮💖

What an incredible few days at “Transforming Lives Through Music”! From 10-12 September, 170 passionate healthcare professionals, volunteers, and community members came together at Assisi Hospice to explore the healing power of music in palliative care.

Participants dove deep into the vibrant series of lectures and hands-on workshops, and experienced the magic of music as a tool for connection, comfort, and spiritual care. 🎵🤝

We are grateful to have Dr. Nicki Cohen and talented music therapists from local healthcare institutions sharing their wisdom and heart. Their generosity made this interactive, experiential journey truly unforgettable.

Big thanks to the Community Care Manpower Development Awards (CCMDA) for supporting this free, enriching programme that is transforming care through the universal language of music.
