About The Organisation

We’re proud to be the leading provider of palliative and end-of-life care services in Nottinghamshire. We offer care for all adults who need practical and emotional support during what is a difficult journey. This includes our range of special services in your home to meet planned or urgent needs, as well as advice through our 24-hour support line.

We are an organisation built on compassion, strengthened by trust, and driven by ambition providing free end-of-life care within our Nottinghamshire community to all who need it. We continue to grow, are forward thinking and always strive to develop our services to make further impact across the county. We champion innovation in end‑of‑life care, and inspire others to live our values in everything we do. It is an exciting time to be part of Nottinghamshire Hospice’s future growth.
