About Us

The Peace Hospice brings peace, comfort and dignity to patients and families facing the crisis of cancer and other terminal illnesses. We focus on enabling patients to live their lives to the full and providing the best quality of life when a cure is not possible. The Peace Hospice is based in Watford. It provides a warm, friendly and supportive environment in which everyone feels welcome.

Our specialist team of doctors, nurses and therapists use their expertise and skills to care for people with a terminal illness and provide support for their families and carers. Our care is holistic helping with emotional and spiritual issues as well as physical symptoms through our inpatient, day and outpatient care, hospice at home service and bereavement support

In our day care and inpatient units we do much more than simply manage pain and treat symptoms. A range of therapies like massage, physiotherapy and relaxation techniques help our patients to come to terms with their condition.

Our social work/ family services team is there to help patients and their families with practical and psychological issues. We support bereaved families and friends through our bereavement service, which also runs the 'STARS' grief programme for children.

All our care is provided free of charge. We are reliant on voluntary income for 75% of our funding with only a quarter from the NHS, therefore donations from the community are vital to support the care we give.
