People facing bereavement or a life-limiting illness often experience anxiety, isolation, fear and poor mental wellbeing, yet access to timely emotional support is increasingly limited due to overstretched services and growing waiting lists. Lewis-Manning Hospice Care is addressing this need by providing counselling, family support and complementary therapy to help people cope, feel less alone, reduce anxiety and improve quality of life during some of life’s most difficult moments.

Sunflower House provides free holistic support for patients and families affected by life-limiting illness and bereavement. Delivered in a calm, welcoming environment by our specialist team, our intervention helps reduce anxiety and isolation, improve emotional wellbeing and equips people with coping strategies to navigate challenging circumstances. Last year, our team provided 2,220 counselling sessions and 726 complementary therapy treatments.
