‘’After the diagnosis, I was referred to Teesside Hospice for the Day Hospice to get help with the emotional effects of the illness, and with my medication. I was so apprehensive, I thought it was a place where you go to die. I was wrong. It’s not about death at all. Everyone at the hospice encourages you to be the best you can be every day’’.

For over 38 years Teesside Hospice has been committed to changing lives across Teesside & North Yorkshire by supporting people and families who’ve been affected by a terminal illness.
