St Giles Hospice offers specialist nursing, medical and holistic care to those living with cancer and other serious illnesses where cure is unlikely. This care is provided primarily through a team of clinical nurse specialists working in the community, a growing hospice at home service, a day hospice, two in-patient units and a Lymphoedema clinic.

There is no charge to patients for the specialist services we offer. We receive some funding from the NHS but primarily we rely on fundraising activities to support our work. St Giles launched its 5 year strategy in April 2017, has just successfully rebranded and is at an exciting point in its development. Income generation will be key to the future development of St Giles, both in ensuring existing services are maintained and expanded as well as being pivotal to new service development to enable us to support the ever growing need for hospice services.
