Why did you become a St Nicholas Hospice Care trustee?

I was keen to become involved with St Nicholas Hospice Care after I moved back to the area, the reputation and work of the hospice highlighted it as an excellent organisation providing outstanding support to the community.

I’ve always been passionate about hospice care, its value, and highlighting it in day-to-day life. I’m aware hospices, bereavement, and death are not talked about enough, especially at a younger age so I’m keen to champion this. I feel hugely privileged to be a board member and support the hospice.
