Welcome to Queenscourt and thanks for your interest Hospice in Summerand just for 'dropping in'. We'd like to think that you'll find useful information here and a 'feel' for who we are and what we are trying to achieve.
The superb services we provide FREE to all our patients will carry on throughout 2010, but only thanks to your generosity, in money and time, for our team of volunteers give an amazing amount of their spare time. And give it freely, saving us a large amount of precious money, which takes more and more work to raise.
If you can give us a little, of your time or money, then.. please don't wait.. just do it!

Although Carers Week has now passed by, don't forget we provide information and the opportunity to talk to team members throughout the year. Please contact us if you need assistance and we will try our best to help you.


People ask us lots of questions about our services, funding, and everything else! We thought it would be a good idea to gather these together into a 'Frequently Asked Questions' page (FAQ for short). If you have anything you want to ask us use the 'Contact Us' button and we may add it to the list of 'FAQ'

Our Queenscourt at Home service is now well into its second full year of QatHa1operation. It has been very well received and we have helped many patients to be at home, which is where most prefer to be. The 'Queenscourt at Home' service has been comprehensively assessed and its effects reported on by Edge Hill University's Evidence-based Practice Research Centre. It makes for interesting reading. Read a copy of the report here(pdf file)

We have now received planning permission for the improvement works to our in-patient unit. Click here for more information.
