Addressing

Why is this a priority?

Encouraging social and emotional well being is key to improving quality of life for those nearing the end of life.

What we’ve done so far:

Run a range of diversional activities such as expressive art, therapeutic craft and gardening
Run day therapy sessions where patients meet others in the same situation to help and support one another
Provided a limited number of trained counsellors and established a trained team to identify and address these issues with patients and their families

Campaign Hospice Reach will enable us to:

Furnish and equip the new Well Being clinic, chapel and family rooms in the new Hospice
Develop the range of therapeutic services for day patients
Improve practical and emotional support available carers
Strengthen and extend our counselling and bereavement provision

Caring for the communities of Eastbourne, Polegate, Pevensey, Seaford, Hailsham, Heathfield, Uckfield and everywhere in between
