Take on a Santa Challenge!

This Christmas we’ve decided to do some different challenges in our Santa suits – in fact some really different ones!

You can still get on your bike and do the ever-popular Wadebridge to Padstow Santa Cycle, but you can also do the Santa Paddle challenge on your paddle board or kayak, or, if you fancy getting the adrenaline really pumping, do an amazing Santa Skydive!

Taking part in a Santa challenge will help keep our beds open and our amazing nurses caring, so why not get involved, raise some funds, and have fun together in a Santa suit!

Visiting our hospices, shops and donation centres

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue with Covid procedures at our hospices, shops and donation centres.

All front-line staff are continuing to wear the necessary and extra PPE on the wards and visitors are being asked to carry on wearing masks if they are able to. Visitor information is available below.

In all of our shops and donation centres, till screens stay in place, we’re asking staff, volunteers and customers to keep wearing masks/visors and sanitiser stations remain. We’re continuing to restrict numbers entering the shops at any one time.

We hope you understand our stance – without the income from our shops we can’t operate our hospices. Read our full statement HERE.

We need volunteers across our shops, donation centres and events. Volunteers are vital to our charity and you will gain new skills and friendships. Can you give your gift of time? Click volunteer below to find out more.

Cornwall Hospice Care Covid-19 statement

Cornwall Hospice Care has ensured Covid-19 risk assessments have been carried out in all areas of our charity. Where required, adjustments have been made to ensure working environments are as Covid secure as is practically possible.

The safety of our patients, their families, our staff, volunteers, customers and supporters is paramount. We work closely with all relevant authorities and advisory bodies to ensure we are following current guidelines, implementing any changes as necessary.

Thank you!

In these challenging times our world has changed in many different ways. However, the one constant has been the care we provide at our two hospices that have remained open 24/7 admitting patients to our 20 end-of-life and specialist palliative care beds.

As a charity we rely heavily on the support of the people of Cornwall, people like you, who leave us legacies, support our virtual fundraising events, play our lottery and donate to, and buy in, our shops and donation centres.

Thank you, we need you now more than ever!
