Our hospice care and support is available completely free of charge for adults and children across Kent and East Sussex. We are here day and night to help patients with an illness where a cure is no longer possible, and for patients who will at some stage die from their illness (you may hear this referred to as “palliative care”).

Advance care planning – three tips to get started

It’s important to plan beyond tomorrow. At Hospice in the Weald, we believe that good planning helps ensure things go the way you want them to. Planning for your end of life needn’t be scary or something you only do when faced with it. By planning in advance, your family and loved ones know your wishes, are less anxious and can make the process easier, ensuring the things most important to you are followed and respected.

Finding joy: Ella’s story

Ella shared her story earlier this year when she was receiving care at the Hospice in Pembury for pain management and symptom control. "I’m grateful that the Hospice aren’t just supporting me, but my family too. They are happy coming here because they know I’m comfortable and safe, it’s a relief knowing things are made that much easier for them. They know when they come to visit me here that we will be able to make the most of our time together."
