It is the aim of Great Oaks Hospice to offer care and support to adults with a life limiting illness.
This week is National Volunteers’ Week, and we’d like to say a huge thank you to all of our incredible volunteers 💚
We simply couldn’t do what we do without you.
Our volunteers give their time across so many areas of the hospice, supporting our patients, families, staff and wider community. Your compassion, dedication and generosity truly make a difference every day.
We are so grateful for everything you do to help our hospice continue and grow its services for those who need us most.
Thank you for being such an important part of our hospice family.

Today, Mary kindly visited us at the hospice to deliver the wonderful sum of £542.05, raised at Saturday’s Coffee Morning – an incredible effort!
While she was here, Mary had the chance to catch up with Complementary Therapist Gerry, who she has known for some time. Mary’s daughter Julie had previously attended Great Oaks before she very sadly passed away. Following Julie’s passing, Mary continued to receive complementary therapy support from Gerry – one of the many services we are proud to offer to bereaved families.
It was especially meaningful for Mary and Gerry to be reunited today as she handed over the proceeds from the Coffee Morning.
Thank you, Mary, for your continued support 💚
