St Helena Hospice

St Helena helps local people in North Essex to face incurable illness and bereavement. We reach out to members of our community, helping them make their own choices and live with dignity. By focusing on their physical, emotional and spiritual needs, we aim to bring comfort and relief to all those who need it, offering the people of North Essex individual care and total support, regardless of their diagnosis or personal circumstances.

We all share a common goal: to be here every step of the way for everyone who needs us, helping life to go on in the face of dying, death and bereavement. By visiting them in their homes, over the phone with our 24/7 advice line, through our day therapies, and at The Hospice, through all the smiles and all the tears we guide those who need us, because we believe in making every memory matter.

Our priorities: 

• Reaching out based on need regardless of diagnosis or circumstances
• Empowering people to plan ahead, share their choices and achieve their wishes
• Providing excellent personalised care to more people in hospice beds and in the home
• Helping life go on in the face of dying, death and bereavement
