💜 A Heartfelt Thank You 💜

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Margaret Pink for her incredible support of In Home Hospice Care Inc over the past 12 months.

Through her dedication and initiative, Margaret has raised and donated an amazing $5,000 from the sale of recycled and preloved Tupperware — a truly inspiring effort that reflects both generosity and care for our community.

Margaret’s kindness goes far beyond her incredible fundraising. Through her efforts, she’s not only supporting our work but also showing how much care one person can bring to a whole community. It’s been wonderful to see others get behind this as well — by purchasing items or generously donating their own preloved Tupperware to support the cause.

It’s because of people like Margaret, and the community around her, that we’re able to continue walking alongside those facing life-limiting illness, offering comfort, support, and compassion to them and the people who love them. 💜

Thank you, Margaret, for making such a difference 💐

NATIONAL ADVANCE CARE PLANNING WEEK 17 – 23 March 2026
This year’s theme is “ Your Story, Your Choice.”
National Advance Care Planning Week encourages people to reflect on their values and make
decisions about their future healthcare.
Advance care planning helps individuals:
• Clarify their healthcare wishes
• Provide guidance for family and healthcare professionals
• Ensure care aligns with personal values and preferences
These conversations can sometimes feel difficult to start, but they are incredibly important.
Taking time to discuss and record your wishes can provide reassurance and clarity for both you and your loved ones.
Further information https://www.advancecareplanning.org.au/start-planning/record-your-choices/sa

You can obtain a copy of an Advance Care Planning Booklet from the Mount Gambier Libary or from In Home Hospice Care Inc office at 34 Percy Street (note: office hours Monday and Thursday 10am - 3pm)

Learn how to record your future health care choices and where to find the right information and documents specific to SA.
