Spiritual Care

Many people find coping with a life-limiting illness raises a variety of questions including the meaning of life, suffering, death and after-life. The feelings people have when dealing with these issues is sometimes called spiritual pain.  We recognise that there are a variety of ways in which people respond to spiritual pain; some people will receive comfort from within their faith community, while others may not be of any religious persuasion.   All Hospice staff will try to support you with your spiritual needs in whatever way they can. 

Our Head of Social, Psychological and Spiritual Care alongside our Coordinating Chaplain are responsible for spiritual care at the Hospice. 

The Haven offers a quiet space for reflection or prayer and is available for everyone of all faiths or none. If you require ablution facilities these are provided adjacent to the Bluebell Room. Weekly services, Holy Communion, personal prayers, prayers at the bedside and special services are offered.  If you have a particular need, please ask a member of staff.

We welcome feedback on our services, good and bad.  Please download and complete our Comments and Compliments form here.
