We're a local charity that provides free palliative and end of life care.
We care for people across 600 square miles in Surrey and South West London, supporting families before, during, and after death.
At any one time, we care for around 1,000 patients but did you know only a small proportion of our care is delivered at the Hospice in Esher.
Most of our care is delivered in people's homes, allowing them to be at home surrounded by their loved ones.
