About

St Peters Hospice -Hospice Neighbours Engagement

Most people who are at the end of life prefer to be at home, if possible. An increasing number of people live alone or don’t have family members living nearby and this can sometimes lead to feelings of loneliness and isolation. People who do have relatives at home can still experience anxiety about how well they’ll manage, and may on occasion, feel the need for extra social and practical support. Our Hospice Neighbour scheme connects service users with volunteers who are willing to offer social and practical support. As a Hospice Neighbour, you can help someone live as well as possible. Sometimes a warm conversation and a helping hand can make all the difference. A Hospice Neighbour says: “I think it has been a most valuable experience for me but also it feels it’s important to the person I’ve been paired with. It’s a wonderful, valuable, and humbling scheme.”
