About us
We’re an independent hospice and registered charity based in Willen Village in Milton Keynes. We provide free expert care and support to adults in the city and surrounding areas who have a life-limiting illness.
Compassionate care for local people
Caring for Milton Keynes for over 40 years
Our dedicated teams provide specialist care, information and advice to support patients, as well as their loved ones, at what may be the toughest time of their lives. Everything we do for our patients is personalised, to help them to deal with the physical and emotional effects of both their illness and any treatments.
Our expert care can give real comfort, ease pain and reduce anxiety for patients and their loved ones. We work closely with GPs, hospitals, community nursing staff and social workers to ensure that our care is co-ordinated, informed and supportive at all levels.
