The new Information Centre will be opening in August 2010. It will offer a range of services as well as somewhere to come and share your story and get real practical help as well as spiritual support no matter on which part of the journey you find yourself.
Hospice care changes lives. A quarter of a million patients are cared for by hospices in the UK each year, either in a hospice or in their own home.
In this section you can find out more about what services are available, who provides them, who can receive hospice care and how to get referred.
The End of Life Care Strategy
The strategy presents us with the opportunity to embed hospice values and principles throughout the care system in England. Hospices are key in helping people accept that dying is part of the experience of living and in providing choice for patients so they can live well until they die – wherever that may be.
