We're excited to share that the Shoothathon for Cancer has chosen Sungardens Palliative Care as a beneficiary of its 2026 event! 💜

Through this initiative, a percentage of the proceeds from every official Shoothathon shirt sold will be donated to Sungardens, helping us continue supporting patients and their families on their palliative care journeys.

Our team will also be at the event, so if you'd like to find out more about Sungardens, what we do or how you can get involved, please come and say hello. We'd love to meet you!

A big thank you to the Shoothathon organisers for choosing to support Sungardens, and to everyone who buys a shirt and contributes to this initiative.

A little good news worth celebrating! 🎉

Our new website is live! 💙

Finding information about palliative care shouldn't be difficult when you or someone you love needs it.

Whether you're looking for information for yourself, a family member or someone you care about, we invite you to explore.

When someone you love is unwell, home is often where they want to be. Their own bed, their own routine, the people they love close by.

Our Home-Based Care team comes to you. We help with pain and other symptoms, and we look after the family too, because caring for someone is a lot to carry on your own.

If you’re wondering whether we could help, phone us on 012 348 1934 or email us at [email protected] . You don’t need to have it all figured out before you contact us.

If you know a family going through this, you might want to send them this post.

A serious illness can change so much about a person's life. And sometimes, knowing when and where to ask for support isn't easy.

Palliative care helps people manage symptoms and pain, supports families through difficult times, and focuses on quality of life. Even while treatment continues.

This World Hospice and Palliative Care Day, we're joining the call to help more people understand palliative care and know that support is available. 💙

A serious illness can change much more than your health.
It can change your routines, your independence, your relationships and the way you experience everyday life.

Palliative care is there to support people through those changes: helping with physical symptoms, emotional and practical challenges and supporting families along the way.

This World Hospice and Palliative Care Day, we’re joining the APCC Assoc of Palliative Care Centres “Imagine If…” campaign to help more people understand what palliative care can mean for someone living with a serious illness. 💙
