Story
Saint Michael's Hospice is here to help people affected by terminal illness to live as full a life as possible. We do this by providing hospice care to people in the Harrogate district living with terminal illness. We also help others to offer hospice standard care to local people. The hospice touches the lives of 1 in every 3 people within the community. Saint Michael's is here for people who need extra support on top of the day-to-day care they receive from GPs, district nurses, hospital teams and nursing home staff. Without the hospice, these people could be left to face the complex issues and forgotten challenges of terminal illness alone. We care for people with a variety of terminal illnesses, including heart failure, respiratory illnesses and neurological conditions; as well as cancer. We care in people's homes, hospitals, care homes and at our hospice. Saint Michael's hospice is proud to be supporting Harrogate Operatic players in their 2020 show, KIPPS. Five members of the cast and crew are taking part in the Yorkshire three peaks on the 28th March to raise valuable funds for the charity and help support the work that they do.
