Willen Hospice
Willen Hospice supports the growing number of people in our community coping with the devastating impact of a life-limiting illness.
We give our patients and their loved ones the highest quality, personalised care – completely free of charge. With compassion and experience, our expert teams help patients who have complex symptoms or needs to make every day the best it can be.
All of our patients are assessed holistically, to help them deal with both the physical and emotional effects of their illness and any treatments. We take time to listen to patients’ needs so we can provide specialist care, advice and support to make them as comfortable as possible. This means they can spend more precious quality time with family and friends.
We offer practical and emotional support for patients’ carers too, through our skilled staff and regular support groups. This includes help with wellbeing, making plans for the future and bereavement. Only 13.8% of our running costs are met by ongoing NHS funding, so we’re reliant on the generosity of our community to help fund our much-needed services.
Can you help? There are many ways you can support your local hospice. Sign up to become a Friend of Willen and be the first to know our latest news and events.
