The team at St Barnabas looked after my uncle with such care and dignity. I will never forget everything the truly amazing team at the inpatient unit does for everyone of their patients. They deserve the world. I'm so happy to carry a torch in my uncles memory, and to support such amazing people.

Hello, I have made a kind donation in memory of my amazing mum, Sarah and would love to share her story.

My mum was cared for by St Barnabas hospice, and stayed in the inpatient unit November-December 2024. At the age of 38 she had been diagnosed with a rare, incurable form of genetic lung cancer. Her short battle with cancer was terrible for us all to see, but the incredible care she received at your hospice meant the world to us.

One of the last memories we ever made with our mum was watching the torchlight procession together outside the unit. The staff assisted in bundling my mum up in blankets and fluffy socks and wheeled her outside to watch the light walk with her family and children. There were tears, smiles, laughter, kind words and hugs from those passing by. I am heartbroken yet honoured to be participating in the walk this year in honour of my mother.

On the 4th of December, the staff set up their conservatory to allow us to spend one last Christmas Day as a family. We laid presents under the beautiful tree, played music and ate a Christmas dinner and cakes brought in by family. My mum was able to watch her young boys and teenage girls open the presents she’d picked out for them earlier in the year, alongside being spoilt herself with lots and lots of bracelets, teddy bears and skincare! The nurses were constantly on hand to assist with pain management and ensuring my mum was comfortable throughout the day.

The staff gave it their all, from washing, brushing and drying mum’s hair to being there for a broken family in the worst moments of their life. They went above and beyond to allow us to make those last memories. The nurses constantly spoke to me and my siblings and ensured we were staying as strong as possible! Mandy stayed with us as my mum took her last breaths and I’m forever grateful that we had her support and guidance, and that she showed my mum complete compassion and gentle care right up until the end.

My mum was treated with respect and dignity until the moment she left your unit. She loved the yummy food, joking around with her nurses and watching the squirrels and birds from her window. It felt like home.

Thank you St Barnabas, we will always keep your charity close to our hearts. You have made a huge difference to our lives.

In loving memory of such a wonderful Dad x

I hope you are both having an amazing time together. We all miss you so much. Lots and lots of love Robert, Nicola, Jake, Oliver and Emilia

2 years on from losing you and missing you so much that words are not enough. Our lives are so much poorer without you. You loved Christmas so much as it was a time our children and grandchildren were altogether and the inevitable empty chair at the table now is such a brutal reminder you are no longer with us. Rest in peace my love. Your beloved wife Di xxxx

For my beautiful, brave mum.

Auntie Edna was an inspiration to me, and all that had the pleasure of knowing her. Despite challenges she faced, she always had a positive attitude, and such determination, strength and bravery that astounded us all. She had the kindest heart, the biggest smile and will be very missed by all that knew her. She always wanted to help others, enjoyed baking, especially rock cakes, which were amazing and has taught me so much and a real example of the woman I have become. We have so many amazing memories together, from being young in her garden watching the lilies blossom in her pond, baking all sorts of delights together to hours sat on the sofa chatting. She leaves a very big hole, however, I know her star is shining brightly above us.
