A Very Warm Welcome From Us

Chances are you’re feeling a mixture of emotions right now.

You might feel sad about visiting your loved one for the first time or nervous about what to expect when you arrive. It's natural to feel overwhelmed by the practical aspects of your visit with so much on your mind.

Perhaps you'll be receiving care with us soon and want to take a look around.

We understand, and we're here to help take some of the weight off your shoulders.

When to Visit the Hospice

The Community Hospice is situated in a calm and peaceful setting, surrounded by beautiful gardens and views of Bostall Woods.

We’re open 365 days a year, and people can visit 24 hours a day. Family, friends, and even pets are welcome to visit at any time. All we ask is, please check in with our friendly ward staff before arriving, just in case any restrictions are in place.

Disabled parking is available (max 2 hours stay). If you are a patient, we will do our very best to make sure there's priority parking for you.
