About North Devon Hospice
North Devon Hospice cares for local people affected by cancer and other life-limiting illnesses. We believe in being there for all the family.
North Devon Hospice Description
North Devon Hospice provides free care and support to patients and their families who are faced with the impact of a life-limiting illness. We believe in being there for all the family. Our doctors, nurses, counsellors, therapists and volunteers can offer what is needed at such a difficult time in the life of the patient and their family.
The care provided throughout North Devon is because of the amazing generosity of our community. Together, we work towards raising over £4 million from scratch each year. Without this support we couldn’t provide our essential care to thousands of people across the whole of North Devon.

We support hundreds of families every year who are faced with the prospect of losing their dad. So we know how tough today can be for many people out there. Just to say, we’re thinking of you all.
So proud to be part of North Devon Diversity Festival, celebrating Pride Month. A fantastic event, thank you to all involved. North Devon at its best! 🏳️🌈

The bags and shoes we sell in our shops are so popular that we've completely SOLD OUT! So we need your help! If you have a special handbag or pair of shoes that just don't get the wear they deserve, please donate them to us for someone else to love.

We are very lucky to have a team from accord here at the hospice today, and every Monday for the next few weeks, working in our gardens preparing the Accord flower bed, ready for some new plants to be put in thanks to their very generous £1000 donation to our gardens.
Our patients love being able to see and walk in our gardens, which are so beautiful thanks to the people that volunteer and businesses that support them like Accord.
Thank you so much to the guys here today and all at Accord! 💛 🌹
Join us on Instow beach, Sun 14th July, to place a flower and a message on our raft, in memory of someone you love. Floating Bye is a special way to honour those no longer with us. Let's remember together, so please tag anyone who might like to come along. More info at: https://buff.ly/2X3ar8o With thanks to sponsors Heritage Cob and Lime.
A huge thank you to stalwart hospice supporter, Stuart Brocklehurst, who took on the gruelling Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge. He raised a phenomenal £2,600! Thank you for your ongoing support, it means a great deal to all those we care for.
We ❤️ our volunteers! So great to hold events during #VolunteersWeek to say thank you for their tireless service. We simply could not provide our care without them, it's that simple.

"We can put this towards a deposit on our first home. This has made my week!" It's always a privilege to present a cheque to the winner of our weekly hospice lottery draw. But it's particularly heartwarming when it clearly means this much. It could be you next week, by signing up at playnorthdevon.co.uk.
Chapeau! (That's cycling talk for 'well done'!) Good luck guys, and thank you for supporting North Devon Hospice.
