Hospice Community Hub
The Hospice Community Hub in Whitehall is open to adults living with a life-limiting illness, as well as their families and carers. It offers emotional support, practical advice, and uplifting wellbeing activities - from creative workshops like painting and crafting, to simply sharing a cup of tea and a quiet moment with someone who understands.
