JUST WISHING YOU WERE STILL HERE TO SHARE OUR MEMORIES TOGETHER
You are loved and missed more with each passing year xxx
Our mum was an amazing woman who cared for everyone more than she ever did herself. At Barnabas was close to her heart as they looked after her dad before he died. We raised money for St Barnabas at my mums funeral 2 months ago and we know she would be so happy to see so much money go to a charity she loved so much. My mum was an amazing, caring and kind woman and she will be dearly missed for the rest of our lives.
In loving memory of my beautiful cousin Alison Breese forever loved and sadly missed

Missing them all at this time of year, and the fun we shared at Christmas time
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.
My wonderful Uncle Lew. Not a day goes by I don't miss his voice, wish he could tell me a joke, wish we could have a cuppa or a Sunday night telephone call. He truly was one of my favourites and I know I was his. Miss him dearly x
We miss you so much Dad. Forever in our hearts and thoughts. Love you always xxx
merry christmas jay! i hope you’re partying hard up there. love you always <3
The light of Jesus shines through all those who work in St. Barnabas
Hospice. Thank you so much for your love and support.

Loving fondest memories of all the happy times we shared at Christmas and throughout the years.
Happy birthday Dad
Loved and remembered from all the family xx
My mum spent her last moments in st barnabas and I am so grateful for the care they provided her and were able to give us those last special moments with her. All staff were amazing. I have no words that would forever show how incredible the place is!
Missing my mam and dad, as both passed away at Christmastime
My father died at the age of 39 and my sister at 19 and despite these tragedies, my mother lived to the age of 84. They are always in my thoughts. I have had the good fortune to have lived just over twice as long as my dad and just over four times longer than my sister!
