The first edition of Mercy Matters for 2026 is here!

When Pearl Robson’s sister was cared for at Mercy Hospice, she was blown away by the support they received: “I never ever forgot it” — not knowing that just a few years later, her husband Dave would too be under Mercy’s care.

Read about how Pearl’s powerful legacy of love will help support other families in the future 💙

Fuel keeps our care moving, and right now we urgently need your help. 🚙

The vast majority of Mercy Hospice’s specialist palliative care is provided in the community: in the homes of the hundreds of Aucklanders we support each year.
The price of fuel is rising – so too is demand for hospice services.

Your generous support makes our essential work possible, at no cost to our patients and their whānau.

If you’re able, please donate to our Tank of Thanks Urgent Appeal via the link in bio.

We’re proud to support The Day of the Dead community ceremony, a ceremony for everyone touched by loss, creating a space for people to come together and remember those that have gone, or are going. 💚

At Mercy Hospice, we believe normalising conversations about death and grief helps us do death better and builds stronger compassionate and capable communities.

If you’ve lost someone, are supporting someone who is grieving, or simply want to be part of a healing, inclusive community experience — you are warmly welcome. Please bring any mementos to add to the story space for our loved ones.

Fuel keeps our care moving, and right now we urgently need your help. 🚙

Last year, Mercy Hospice’s team of community nurses visited more than 1200 patients in their homes across central Auckland.

In patients' homes, community nurses provide assessments, develop care plans, and source equipment, such as a bed hoist, wheelchair, or hospital bed.

Caring for people in their homes removes the stress in travelling to appointments, providing comfort and dignity in a place that is familiar.

Keeping palliative care in the community is critical, and we can’t do it without you.

Fuel keeps our care moving, and right now we urgently need your help. 🚗

Today we’re launching our Tank of Thanks Urgent Appeal to support our community palliative care service during the global fuel crisis.

Mercy’s community nurses drive an average of 10,000km each month caring for patients in their homes: providing comfort, dignity, and support. But rising fuel costs pose a threat to our regular services.

Keeping palliative care in the community is critical, and we can’t do it without you.

For Louie Loten, Mercy Hospice was “just such a comfortable place to be” for her husband Stephen Bradshaw, and their wider family.

Their Maltese puppy Bear was able to visit, and members of their large whānau were able to sleep at Stephen’s side each night.

“It really was a very positive experience. We had no idea it could be like this.”
