Living Well

Living Well is an inviting and welcoming space where people can come to have fun, socialise and relax, and work towards their goals.

Based out of the Hospice in Pembury, the Living Well Centre provides a space for patients and those important to them to come and adjust, together and separately, to the reality that they or their loved one has been diagnosed with a terminal illness.

We have a number of groups and activities to get involved with. We encourage and support you to be independent and to feel empowered to make choices about how you spend your time with us. We’ll work with you to find out what matters to you, and what you’d like to achieve to help you build a personalised programme of activities and therapies based on your needs.

The Living Well team is made up of Nursing Assistants, complementary therapists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, chaplains, counsellors and volunteers. The team help and support patients and those important to them to feel empowered to make choices and decisions based on their individual needs and wherever possible, encourage supported self-management.

The Living Well Centre at the Hospice is bright, airy and looks out over our beautiful Hospice gardens. We can open the space up for you to sit outside when the weather is good, as well as walk around the gardens and our Labyrinth. We also offer private, intimate complementary therapy and counselling rooms as well as access to the Hospice gym.
