'It really lifts your spirits to come here. Since I've been coming to Day Therapy I am a different person - much happier and calmer.' Quoted by John, a Day Therapy patient.
The Charity's prime financial responsibility is funding Day Therapy at Arthur Rank House.
The aim of Day Therapy is to provide physical and emotional support and alleviate the anxiety and fear experienced by patients. Patients and their carers have access to specialist professional care, complementary therapies, art and craft therapies and the mutual support of fellow patients.
People who have been diagnosed with life-limiting illness can be referred to Day Therapy by their General Practitioner or District Nurse. Any health or social care professional should be able to talk to to you about being referred.
Hospice at Home provides specialist palliative care for adult patients at the end of their lives enabling them to remain at home if that is their wish.

In addition to the care given to patients, the Hospice at Home nurses also offer vital support to families as they face the emotional and practical challenges of caring for a loved one.
