Bringing Hospice Care Closer to Home

As we move forward, we are refining the hospice design to reflect our community’s needs while remaining financially achievable. In response to rising construction costs, this includes a more efficient footprint that will maintain the highest standards of care while keeping our fundraising goal within reach. With the property secured at Trafalgar Road and 5 Side Road in Georgetown, we are working with skilled architects to plan a space that is both functional and compassionate, bringing us closer to serving families with dignity and support.
