Mercy Hospice provides a range of specialist community palliative care and hospice services for people facing life limiting illnesses, caring for them with clinical expertise, compassion and quality of service. We also offer support and education to family, friends and carers to help them cope with problems arising from the illness.
All our services are offered free to patients and their families, regardless of age, ethnicity, gender identity, means or religion, thanks to the generosity of our community.
