Hospice Wanganui

Hospice is not just a building, it is a philosophy of care, and our goal is to help people make the most of their lives.

Each of us faces death as uniquely as we live our life. Our experience tells us that most of us hope that when death comes to us or someone close to us, it will be peaceful and free of pain. We hope to face death surrounded by those we love, cared for, feeling safe and comfortable.

Welcome to the Hospice Wanganui website.  Take a look around and learn a little about this important community organisation - you might be surprised!  We have stories from patients, families, staff and supporters of Hospice, there's an event calendar, opportunities to be involved with everything from fundraising to volunteering, and ways for you to interact with us and our audience.  You can organise a fundraiser, or share your story or feedback with us, or just catch up on what's been happening at Hospice on the blog page.  So jump onboard and see what happens up here on the hill!  It's your Hospice - it's our privilege to look after it for you...
