Our facilities and services

Our purpose is to lead the way in providing specialist care, supporting babies, children, young adults and adults with life-limiting conditions, helping them to live well and make every day count.

The support extends to their loved ones and is FREE to all who need it.

Our Services

We support adults whose GP surgery falls in Bedfordshire. Children and their families whose GP surgery falls in Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, and Milton Keynes.

We are here for patients with all progressive life-limiting illnesses, such as cancer, non-malignant disease and people living with frailty.

Care and support can be provided in the patients own home, as an outpatient or in our day services in Bedford and Luton, or in our purpose-built in-patient units in Luton.

We will provide a programme of care and support that has each person at the centre, enabling them to live well with their life limiting condition.

The earlier we can see patients who have been diagnosed with a progressive life-limiting illness, we believe, the better the outcome for the patient and their families.

Our approach

We offer a well-co-ordinated, multi-professional and ‘seamless’ service, which integrates hospice specialist palliative care services with primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare services, other voluntary/ independent agencies, social services and in the case of children and young people, education services.

We treat patients, their families and friends as individuals, with compassion, humility, honesty and respect. Whenever possible we will involve them in decisions about treatment, respecting their preferences, beliefs and customs and always assure their complete privacy and dignity.
