We strive to improve the lives of those affected by terminal or life-limiting illnesses, giving them and their carers the confidence to cope and enjoy the best quality of life possible. We care for patients wherever and whenever they need us, enabling them to live their life to the full. We believe that hospice care is about life and living, not just death and dying.

Our specialist hospice care is based on individual needs and the wishes of our patients and those closest to them. Everyone’s needs are different and we want our care to be meaningful to each and every one we look after at the end of their lives. A hospice is not just a building; it is all those precious moments shared with your loved ones in a caring and friendly environment of your choice.

For over 30 years we have been providing expert hospice care for people in Merton and Sutton at no charge, aged 18 and over irrespective of their race or religion. We care for local families in people’s home, on our ward and our Wellbeing Centre. With the help of our skilled staff and dedicated volunteers, we are able to meet the emotional, spiritual and social needs of our patients, as well as those important to them before and after death. 

The Hospice needs over £6.5 million a year to run, relying heavily on public donations, legacies and fundraising to keep going. Thanks to the generosity of the public, we are able to make an enormous difference to the lives of 1,000 patients every year. We are not state-funded, even though every one of our patients is a NHS patient. We only receive about 25% of our costs from the NHS and the remainder, £4.8 million per year, we need to raise ourselves.
