About Us
The hospice cares for adults with a palliative or end of life diagnosis across North Staffordshire. When someone hears the devastating news that they have a terminal illness, life as they know changes forever. We provide care and support free of charge, 24 hours a day, 365 days. We help people living with cancer and non cancer life limiting illnesses such as advanced heart failure, motor neurone disease and incurable lung diseases. Our dedicated staff and volunteers make a huge difference to a patients’ journey, they are central to the care we provide and all we do. We strive to go that extra mile to provide a warm, friendly and peaceful environment both at the hospice or in a family’s home. We promote choice, independence, dignity and an individual journey.
