A new groundbreaking partnership will bring more specialist support closer to home for local people

David Fletcher steps up as our new Chief Executive following the departure of Dr Richard Soulsby, who led our charity for 27 years.

Mike Smith already volunteers his time and expertise as a trustee. Now, he’s taking that support further by joining our Retail Board, helping ensure our charity shops continue to fund care for local families.

Emma Yates brings over 20 years’ experience in retail and income generation, and she has recently joined our Retail Board to support the vital role our shops play in funding care for local families.

After seeing the care his mum received, Paul Harris wanted to make a difference. Now he's doing just that a Retail non-executive Director.

After almost three decades leading our charity, Richard will leave Katharine House Hospice on 8 May to begin a new chapter at the Hospice of the Good Shepherd in Chester.

Join us to beat the blues on Blue Monday, 20 January, at our Wellbeing Open Day. This event will launch new services and showcase the full range of wellbeing care available to patients, their families and carers.

In just six months, our partnership with our neighbouring hospices to provide a regional 24/7 advice phone line has proven invaluable for Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent.
