THE HOSPICES

St Richards Hospice is currently trying to raise £5.25 million pounds for a brand new unit with beds

They currently occupy a lovely old building in London Road in Worcester which is too small and only suitable for day patients

Kemp Hospice in Kidderminster is about to move to an old hotel which they have purchased and hope to transform into a bedded hospice

They hope to be ready to move to the site before the year is out

Primrose Hospice in Bromsgrove has a day hospice in the town but is also about to provide care beds at the Princess of Wales Community Hospital in addition to the day care they offer

St Michael's Hospice at Bartestree near Hereford has been established at its present site for coming up to 20 years this September

They have improvement and expansion plans and are also aware that after twenty years, much of their equipment and fabric is beginning to wear out
