Royal Trinity Hospice

Trinity is the local hospice for south west and central London. We believe that every moment matters, so we go above and beyond to help our patients and their families make the most of every moment they have left.

Royal Trinity Hospice cares for people living with progressive, life-limiting illnesses and their families across central and southwest London.

Sometimes people think that by ‘end of life’ we mean the last few weeks of a person’s life. This simply isn’t the case – we encourage early referrals so that we can get to know our patients as individuals and help them to live life to the full for whatever time is left – that might be a year or more, months or weeks.

Our services include nursing and medical care, emotional and practical support, welfare advice, occupational and physiotherapy, complementary therapies, spiritual care and creative activities. We care for people in their own homes and through non-residential and inpatient services in modern, welcoming facilities at our Clapham centre.

So that more people in our community have a better end of life experience, we share our specialist skills through education and support for other care providers, such as GPs, district nurses, hospitals and care homes.

Our patient and family services are free but we receive around a quarter of our income from the NHS. This means we rely on the support of our local community to raise over £11 million each year.
