Story

The staff at Hospice at Home & the inpatient unit, held us all during Matt’s last few months. Their support meant the world to all of us. They were there when we really needed them. As a family we want everyone to have access to such a vital service, so two of us thought that jumping in cold water & swimming for as long as possible was a great way to raise a bit for the Hospice. We’ll do the painful bit, and if you can, any donation, however small will be gratefully received.We’re swimming at Portishead Lido (unheated 🥶) on 2nd December for as long as we can… 🏊🏼‍♀️❄️🏊🏼‍♀️

St Peter’s Hospice believe “everyone deserves care and dignity at the end of their life, and our expert teams provide that in a professional and caring way. Our support is holistic, and covers the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual issues that can arise as a result of serious illness. We also extend our care to loved ones and carers, providing respite during the hardest of times.

Thanks to donations like yours, we can be a voice at the end of the phone, a nurse on the doorstep, and a hand to hold through the darkest of times.”
