St Barnabas House

Hospice care is love in action. And every day at St Barnabas, we are lucky enough to see love, in all its forms.

This week, in the run up to Valentine’s Day, we’re sharing stories of devotion.

We invite you to join us in a heartfelt tribute to your loved ones with messages of remembrance. So, why not take a moment to reflect on the love you shared and the memories that live on?

Visit our ‘Forever Loved, always Remembered’ page to make a dedication before the end of February:

This week we’ve been picking up the phones to say thank you to the amazing people who supported our winter appeal.

We’re saying a huge thank you to everyone who donated - and calling as many of you as possible – because we want you to know how much we appreciate you.

As we face a nationwide hospice funding crisis, your generosity means we can keep on caring for families across Worthing and the surrounding area.

Thank you 💙

We want to say a huge ✨ thank you ✨ to everyone who supported our winter appeal.

Between you, you've raised over £310,000 for us and our sister hospices Martlets Hospice and Chestnut Tree House. That’s an amazing amount for local people who need hospice care.

Whether you donated, helped spread the word or supported in another way, we're so grateful – and this week we’re picking up the phones to let you know that.

Every gift helps us provide compassionate care when it matters most and, as hospices nationwide face a funding crisis, your support means more than ever.

Thank you for being here for us 💙
