After our 30th anniversary celebrations in 2021, it is a good time to reflect on our roots, and those roots are embedded in the local community. Most of our staff, our patients and our supporters all come from the local area. Hospice of the Valleys wouldn’t exist if local people hadn’t worked together to start the organisation and it is crucial that we keep the voice of those we support as an intrinsic part of the way we adapt to the challenges moving forward.
There was so much change following the pandemic, but for us at the Hospice, nothing changed, we adapted the ways in which we worked to continue supporting our patients and their loved ones, at a time when they needed us the most. We remained at the heart of our community and stepped forward when other services took a step back.
We are here for you, providing Specialist Palliative Care services, including community nursing, an in-reach service to community hospitals, bereavement support, physiotherapy, welfare rights advice, complementary therapy, emotional support and a dedicated service for patients living with a dementia diagnosis.
Our local shops help raise vital funds so we can continue providing specialist care and support to our patients and their families.

At Hospice of the Valleys we shape our end of life care around the ever-changing needs of our community.
We’re in the process of putting together a plan for how the services we provide will look over the next three years, (from March 2025) paying close attention to what matters most to our patients and their families, as well as our supporters, our healthcare colleagues and our staff and volunteers.
You can help us to get that right by taking part in this survey, answering a few key questions about what we do now and how we should develop in the future.
We already know how much people appreciate the specialist care we offer, that’s why we want to keep offering the most appropriate services, in a timely manner, for everyone who needs our support.
Please help us by completing our survey and provide us with vital feedback on our strategy and care. We read every response, and it will help shape the future of Hospice of the Valleys.
Thank you.
