St Christopher's Hospice Social Programme brings local community together

The St Christopher’s ‘Social Programme’ aims to bring together those who use the hospice and members of the local community.

Weekly events such as a community choir, a curry night and a quilting group offer opportunities for St Christopher’s to develop as a ‘social hub’. Many people are afraid to visit a hospice and do not feel comfortable talking about death and dying. St Christopher’s believes that we all have a responsibility to change this and these events are planned in order to offer social opportunities to dispel myths and change perceptions of both St Christopher’s and the people who use the services that the hospice offers.
