Following our official opening in December 1996, we have successfully been providing voluntary
services offering high quality day care for those suffering with terminal illness or a life threatening
condition.We are registered with the National Care Standards Commission to take up to 18 individuals
per day.Through the commitment of our highly qualified nurses and trained volunteers we provide
basic care and support as well as a range of social and creative activities.Our services are greatly
appreciated by all that use them. A recent patient survey produced some of the following comments:-
"Dove Cottage gives me my independence, it gives me my life back again."
"A place where I forget my problems and worries. A place where my mood is lifted. A place where
volunteers are just fantastic."
"What would I do without you, you really are the sunshine in my life."
All the services we provide are free of charge. Some funding is received from the local authority but
we still need to raise £70,000 a year ourselves. If you could consider helping us any way, with any amount, however larger or small, we would be delighted.
There are several ways you may like to consider supporting us.
