Our next tour is on Thursday 24 September 10am - 11.15am.
Hospice care isn’t just for people who need it today. At some point in your life, you or someone you love may need the kind of care, comfort and support that a hospice provides.
That’s why we’re opening our doors and inviting you to explore our hospice, meet our team and learn more about the care we provide, and understand how we support patients, families and loved ones across our community - today and how we plan to do this in years to come.
Come along to one of our guided tours to hear real stories that bring hospice care to life and find out more about the services we offer at the hospice and in the Greenwich and Bexley community.
You'll also learn that while our hospice building is in Abbey Wood, most of the care and support we offer to our patients takes place beyond our walls. We see patients in their homes, at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and throughout our community.
Whether you’re a member of a community group, local organisation, or if you live in the boroughs of Greenwich or Bexley, we'd love to welcome you.
