Bringing the old school vibes back to Bury.

Bury Hospice is recapturing the buzzing spirit of Bury’s old clubbing scene at Back In The Day, our first day clubbing event. All clubbers are invited to have some fun during the afternoon, listening to the best club anthems while dancing with friend...

Did you know that most falls are preventable?

Through simple home modifications, strength and balance exercises, regular health check-ups, and social interaction, you can actively reduce risks of falling.

Falls are not an inevitable part of ageing and can be prevented with the right support.

Thank you to all the amazing people who ran the Bury 10k, last weekend, in aid of the hospice.

You've done a smashing job of raising much-needed funds that will enable many patients and families to access vital care and support.

Sponsor a Nurse and help us to continue providing care and support for local people when they need it most.
Our team of specialist nurses don't just provide end-of-life care, they help as soon as an incurable illness is diagnosed, supporting patients and families at every difficult step of their journey.
There are more people than ever in need of our specialist care, and having recently expanded our services to meet this demand, we need your help to grow and maintain a team of nurses with the specialist clinical skills and compassion that hospice care needs.
Sponsoring a nurse starts from a minimum donation of £10 a month and you will receive a special pin badge as a thank you.

A very special thank you to one of our longest-serving volunteers!
Joyce Keeble has been with Bury Hospice since the very beginning, giving an incredible 34 years of service (alongside Sandra Morris, who volunteers in our shop on The Rock).
Joyce and her husband Fred actually first met while working on the railways and they have both been lifelong train enthusiast ever since. So when the East Lancashire Railway kindly gifted us VIP tickets to their Railway 200 celebrations on Friday the 12th September, it was the perfect way to thank Joyce for her dedication and to give the couple a special day out together.

The VIP service was pulled by the LMS 0-6-0 locomotive 11456 (L&YR 752), built by Beyer Peacock in 1881, a true piece of railway history.

We are so grateful to Joyce, Sandra, and all of our incredible volunteers who give their time to support Bury Hospice. Joyce and her husband Fred are pictured with Mike Kelly, East Lancashire Railway Chairman.

Palliative care can transform experiences of illness for patients and their families, that's why a holistic, person-centred approach is paramount.
