Story

I first became involved with Treetops Hospice Care 12 years ago when my mother-in-law was on end of life care. Frances came to live with me and a full care package was started. Nurses from Treetops Hospices were involved. I was very impressed with the home nursing care Frances received. I was even more impressed when offered therapy sessions for myself at Treetops and a carer would sit with Frances whilst I had the sessions. This was a great surprise to me and I asked why. I was told not only do they give home nursing care but they also look after the person who is caring at home as well. This care and support lasted for 3 months.
I have supported Treetops Hospice Care whenever I can since. I am on lockdown now so I would like to do the 5000 steps around my garden to help raise funds that are so desperately needed at this time.
