Strathcarron Hospice We're a Hospice charity providing free specialist palliative & end of life care for local people. We need to raise over £14,632 every day to keep these running.

Strathcarron Hospice is here today for and because of the people of Forth Valley, Cumbernauld and Kilsyth. Every year, we provide care and support to over 1,400 people with a life-limiting illness or condition, at a time when both they and their family need it most. Our philosophy is about living until you die and we ensure people have every opportunity to achieve their goals right up until the last moment. Strathcarron is an independent hospice and all of our care is provided free of charge. Our services include a 24-bed inpatient unit, Day Care, Hospice@Home, Community Nurse Specialists and Lymphoedema clinic.

Thank you to everyone has sent us in their fond Strathcarron connections as part of our Celebrate 45 year! 🩵

Debbie, who is a member of our Hospice team, shares her family's story:

"My husband's grandad Tommy was diagnosed with cancer whilst I was pregnant with my son. He was told he had a prognosis of 6 months and therefore was unlikely to meet our child. He was there at my son's 2nd Birthday Party! My son was named after his great grandad Tommy.

"Tommy attended Strathcarron Day Care for a long time and loved it, especially making the tie dye scarves for the ladies in his life that we then went on to wear at his funeral.

"He then became an inpatient in the Hospice for end-of-life care where he died on 7 August 2021. During this time he celebrated his Wedding Anniversary, had visits from family and pets and enjoyed watching the rugby with his family.

"At this time my husband and I were engaged but knew that he would not make the wedding.

"Laura from the craft room kindly sat with Tommy and drafted a few words that were then sealed and unopened for almost five years before being read out at our wedding ceremony in April 2026.

"There wasn't a dry eye in the place!

"I am now privileged to be a RGN in the Hospice inpatient unit and get to be a part of the fantastic work of the whole team which is an absolute honour."

This Allied Health Professionals Day we are taking the opportunity to say a massive THANK YOU to our specialist AHP team!

Our AHP team consists of occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech and language therapist and rehab assistants with advanced skills in cancer and palliative care.

Their hard work, passion, and expertise are deeply appreciated, not just today but every single day.

Their commitment to improving lives, whether through rehabilitation, diagnostics, or holistic care, does not go unnoticed.

They are the champions behind so many patient success stories, and their contributions to healthcare make a profound difference in the lives of countless individuals.

The Team provides advice and support by telephone, on the hospice ward, and in patient’s own homes and they work closely with other Hospice and NHS colleagues for a multi-disciplinary holistic approach.

Patients, families and carers are supported to deal with the various physical, psychological and emotional consequences that a cancer or life limiting condition may have on their daily lives.

They focus on what is important to the patient and look at how they can be supported to enjoy or achieve this, listening to what is important to them and helping them to achieve their goals.

Thanks for all you do!

Thank you 💙

20 years of care. 20 years of making a difference.

During Hospice Care Week, we’re celebrating two very special colleagues who have each reached an incredible 20 years at Strathcarron Hospice: Andrea and Mary.

Andrea and Mary have spent two decades caring for patients and families on our Inpatient Unit, bringing compassion, kindness, humour and an incredible depth of experience to every shift. They have supported countless people through some of life’s most difficult moments, while mentoring and teaching generations of colleagues along the way.

Susan Bateman, Lead Nurse for Inpatient Services, shares a few words about their contribution:

“Over the last 20 years, Mary has provided a calm and reassuring presence on every shift. She is always smiley, kind and glamorous, giving 100% to her patients, their families and her colleagues.

Andrea is a ray of sunshine, bringing fun and laughter into work. She is a ball of mischief, with many a practical joke planned and deployed over the years!”

Alongside the laughter, Andrea has also championed safe moving and handling, helping patients achieve the things that matter to them, whether that’s getting up into a chair, having a bath or getting outside one more time.

Two remarkable individuals. One shared commitment: making every moment count for the people in Hospice care

This Hospice Care Week, we’re incredibly proud to celebrate Andrea and Mary and thank them for 20 years of knowledge, dedication, compassion and care.

Thank you, both, for everything you do.
