Patients, families, carers, staff and volunteers are our greatest ambassadors. It is a privilege to share their thoughts, feelings and experiences of Hospice life.

In Memory
In Memory of Sue Elphick
Thursday 30th May 2024: "A former nurse and midwife, Mum was always stoical and knowledgeable about all things medical but we knew that, having visited friends in the Hospice previously, she was secretly holding on for that herself, rather than die in hospital."

Patient Stories
Susan’s Story
“The best way to explain what coming to the Hospice is like, is receiving an invisible cuddle as soon as you walk through the door. It hasn’t taken me long to refer to this place as ‘home’."
Patient Stories
Easter Activities at our Jigsaw Project Day
"The children really enjoyed it, and got involved in the different activities, and games. The parents also joined in on the fun, and it was great to see everybody chatting and laughing amongst one another. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly with everyone asking when the next one would be."
In Memory
In Memory of Tom Flowers
Monday 8th April 2024 “My husband, Tom Flowers spent the last three and a half weeks of his life being cared for by the staff at St Cuthbert’s Hospice. He and I could not have wished for better people to look after him. I cannot praise the staff highly enough."
