Thank you to everyone who came to our Open Gardens Day 2025. 🌻

From cream teas to guided tours and musical performances, we hope everyone had a fantastic time against the beautiful backdrop of our Hospice Gardens — we certainly did!

We're thrilled that our Open Gardens Day raised over £5,000 to support the Hospice.

It takes a community effort to make our hospice such a special place and to keep our gardens looking fantastic. Thank you to every volunteer and local business who donated their time and expertise to make the day such a success — we couldn't have done it without you!

Missed out on the chance to enjoy our Open Gardens Day? We'll be back next year and we'd love to see you there.

L*z was taking medication for prostate cancer for three years before a routine blood test revealed that the cancer had spread and his medication had stopped working. He went on to have 11 rounds of chemotherapy to prolong his life.

Then, in 2024 shortly after him and his wife had celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary, the family were told that the chemotherapy had become ineffective.

Doctors let L*z and his family know that St Peter's would be there to support them when they needed it. 💙

His daughter, Rachel, said: “When we first contacted St Peter’s through the Advice Line, we would ask questions about Dad’s health and the Nurses on the other end of the phone would always be there to reassure us. They were friendly voices to talk to and we loved how they would refer to our Dad simply as Dad. Small touches like this made us feel as if they knew him and it was really comforting during a difficult time."

Who's ready for this year's Bristol Pride? We're excited to have a stall in the Community Tent on 12 July.

David Marten, Head of People, explained why our presence at Pride is important:

"Being a part of Bristol Pride is a fantastic opportunity for us to connect with the LGBTQ+ community and raise awareness about our inclusive end-of-life care services.

"Our presence at Pride supports our five-year strategy to put communities at the heart of our work, ensuring that our services reflect the diverse demographics of our local area.

"We want to work with all our communities to build a future where everyone feels recognised, supported, and celebrated, not just during Pride, but every day."

For us, Pride isn't just a party. As well as being a celebration of love and self-expression, it's a time to shout loudly about our support for those who are marginalised.

Hitting the road in memory of Molly 🏍️

Molly was cared for at the Hospice in 2022. To celebrate her life - and to give something back - her dad launched the Molly Tuckwell Memorial Ride, bringing bikers together to raise funds in her name. What started as a tribute has become an annual event, with riders revving up year after year to keep Molly’s memory alive and support the Hospice that was there when it mattered most.

This year's ride takes place on 13 July. Anyone can join the ride in memory of loved ones, which starts at Sea Walls on the Downs at 9:30am before heading to the Hospice, Severn Bridge, Tintern Abbey and Silver Fox bikers' café.

The Pride season is a special and important time, where our shops across Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire decorate their windows.

If you’re getting ready for Pride this year, why not head to your local St Peter’s shop? Our shop windows are a celebration of LGBTQ+ culture and creative expression, but our support doesn’t stop there.

Our support of the LGBTQ+ community continues beyond just the Pride season — inclusion is part of who we are.

Best friends Ross and Phoebe started an awe-inspiring 3,000km challenge along New Zealand's Te Araroa Trail in November 2024 to raise money in memory of Chris, Phoebe's Dad, who died in July 2023.

“St Peter’s Hospice provided such incredible support to my family during one of the most difficult times in our lives,” said Phoebe. “Dad was ill for about a year before he died and was supported by the Hospice team at home and at the Inpatient Unit in his last few weeks.

“His care at the Hospice was incredible. Even though my Dad was really sick at that point, the Doctors and Nurses really got to know his personality and understood him as a person. This just goes to show the kindness and care that the staff show towards all their patients.”

The intrepid pair finished their hike across the length of New Zealand in April, and are expected to smash their £4,000 target 👏
