A huge thank you to the Pink Bowls Day Social Group and Busselton Lifestyle Village for your incredible support! Your efforts bring the community together and help make compassionate care possible for local families. We’re so grateful for your generosity and commitment.

BUSSELTON Lifestyle Village is again hosting its annual Pink Bowls Day on November 22, bringing residents and the wider community together to support Busselton Hospice Care in providing compassionate end-of-life and bereavement support to local families.

"The generosity and goodwill of our community are what sustain Busselton Hospice Care and make it possible to deliver compassionate end-of-life care and bereavement support," said CEO James Jarvis.
"The Busselton Hospice may have just four patient beds, but we support it and the community with more than 140 incredible volunteers — around 70 of whom are active on a rotational basis within the Hospice Unit.
"Their dedication ensures that everyone in our community is cared for with dignity and compassion.
"We believe everyone matters, no one should die or grieve alone and it's the commitment of our volunteers that makes that belief a reality."

Village resident and social club president Bevan Heddle said he and his neighbours saw great value in supporting local organisations like BHCI.
"The Busselton Hospice provides an essential service to our community, ensuring individuals and families receive care, comfort, and dignity at the most vulnerable times in their lives," he said.
"Supporting the Pink Bowls Day is our way of contributing to that vital work."

Pink Bowls Day is at the Busselton Lifestyle Village on Saturday November 22 from 9.30am.
The Pink Bowls team game will kick off at 12.30pm, with raffles, live music, sausage sizzle and morning tea on offer throughout the day.

Not talking about death does not protect a child.

Children notice when someone important is missing. If no one talks about it, they may feel confused or think they are not allowed to ask questions.

Talking about the person who died helps children feel connected, safe and supported.

🧡 At Lionheart, we support families to keep the memories alive in safe, healthy ways

Looking forward to pitching to the Impact100 WA gathering this Friday night. Thank you to all the donors and supporters that have created this opportunity. Our best wishes are extended to our fellow finalists too!

🌟 Busselton Hospice Care is a 2025 Impact100 WA Finalist! 🌟

We’re excited to share that Busselton Hospice Care has been selected as a finalist for their compassionate new initiative: the Coastal Companions Project 💛

This project will enable the recruitment of a dedicated coordinator to train and manage volunteers who provide in-home support to people with life-limiting illnesses — helping them stay in their own homes longer, with dignity and care.

These specially trained volunteers will offer respite, practical help, and emotional, social, and spiritual support — not just for individuals receiving care, but also for their carers and support networks.

Over the next 2 years, this project is set to benefit 200 individuals across the region, bringing vital care and comfort to those who need it most.

As part of the selection process, Busselton Hospice Care will deliver their pitch for the $100,000 Impact100 WA grant to a live audience — who will vote on which finalists receive funding.

🌿 Leave a Legacy of Love 🌿

As the festive season draws near, many of us reflect on what matters most — family, community, and the values we hold dear.
Leaving a bequest in your Will — to Busselton Hospice Care Inc. or any local charity — is a humble and generous way to pay forward your support to future generations.

Your gift, no matter the size, helps sustain vital services in our community — from end-of-life care and grief support to education and wellness programs.

💙 Every bequest is a legacy of compassion.
💙 Every gift helps build a stronger, kinder future.

We share this message from our own experience, but we encourage you to consider all the wonderful local charities doing meaningful work in our region.
