We’re running for my dad
"Every single person working at the Hospice cares so much for every person and family member using the Hospice Services – and that is what makes the place so special."

Meet our very own dream team, Maureen and Rita!
You’d think they’d been friends their whole lives but Maureen and Rita didn’t actually meet until they both started volunteering for St Cuthbert’s Hospice 15 years ago!
Volunteer Stories
Meet Karl – Volunteer Retail Driver
“A year after Carmel’s passing, I decided that I wanted to give something back to the Hospice as a way of saying thank you for all they had done for us. I’d been lucky enough to retire from work and had a little spare time each week so I applied for a volunteer driver role. I’ve now been part of the team since 2018 and I enjoy every minute of it! I’d recommend it to anyone. If you’re at a loose end and have the time to spare, why not give your time to a worthy cause?”
