Story
Help North Devon Hospice raise £30,000 and fund a special Cuddle Bed for patients and their loved ones, when they’re being cared for on our Bedded Unit.
The Cuddle Appeal also aims to fund more care at home - to help patients remain in the place they love, with the people they love. Hospice care at home brings comfort and reassurance, as our teams can visit round-the-clock to support the whole family.
When symptoms are severe or the end of life is near, couples and family members deserve to lie-down together, cuddle, and sleep next to each other. It gives comfort, dignity and love, at a time when it matters most
We can only provide this loving care with the support of the whole North Devon community. Please donate today, organise a fundraising event, or download our fundraising pack for more ideas. You can be the reason why families stay close, even in the toughest times
What is a Cuddled Bed?
It’s a specialist clinical bed, which has state-of-the-art features to help keep patients comfortable towards the end of life. Crucially, unlike any other clinical bed, a Cuddle Bed can extend to double the width. This allows loved ones to share a bed and retain that sense of normality, even when the rest of their world is shaken
