Our patients and their families are at the heart of everything we do.

We understand that you will have many questions about what Hospice care means and how Springhill could help you.

Sharing a personal experience is a powerful way of raising awareness of Springhill’s work as well as dispelling some of the myths that surround Hospice care.

Here you can read some of our inspiring, real patient stories, kindly shared with us by patients and their loved ones and discover more about the many ways Springhill can help support your journey

"Feel loads better, having someone to talk to changed my mind-set.”  October
