Thanks to St Giles supporters, Lesley and her late husband, Grahame, received specialist care and support when they needed it the most.

My name is Lesley Taylor, and I want to tell you about the outstanding care St Giles Hospice provided to my husband, Grahame, at the end of his life. 

Thanks to your incredible support, St Giles was there for me and my husband when we needed them most.

Whilst Grahame was living with cancer, he became an advocate for end of life care, understanding first-hand the difference it can make to someone in their final days.

Within just three hours of being referred to St Giles Hospice, we received a call from Leia, a St Giles Nurse, whose dedication and compassion were nothing short of extraordinary. Leia assured Grahame that she would do everything in her power to fulfil his wish to spend his final moments at home, in his own bed.”

The support and care Grahame received from Leia and her team were invaluable. They observed Grahame’s needs and ensured he felt comfortable and at ease, providing him with the compassionate care he deserved. No amount of money could buy better support than what we received from St Giles Hospice. 

In light of the exceptional care Grahame received, I have renewed my subscription to the St Giles Hospice lottery. It’s a small way to contribute to a cause that truly makes a difference. As well as signing up to the lottery, I’ve also played the hospice raffle and will be donating some of Grahame’s clothes to the St Giles shops.  

I can’t thank the supporters of St Giles Hospice enough. Your contributions and involvement are crucial in ensuring that others receive the outstanding care that Grahame experienced.”
