The Foundation’s purpose is to raise funds to support the operation of Community Care Northumberland’s hospice service programs in our community including the Palliative Care Community Team, Volunteer Hospice Visiting program, and Grief and Bereavement support which operate alongside the 24/7 end-of-life care provided at Ed’s House Northumberland Hospice Care Centre. Ed's House has recently undergone a significant expansion, increasing our capacity from a 6-bed to a 10-bed hospice. This expansion allows us to extend our compassionate care to more individuals and families in need during one of the most challenging times in their lives.
Through the generosity of our community, our suite of services is offered at no charge to clients and their families.
