Finn's memory
“The incredible care of St Barnabas allowed us one last miracle period with Mum and we will be forever grateful. The warmth and sincerity the team showed us is something I know we all take comfort from every day.
Although visiting was tough, no matter what we were walking into, or the guilt we would often feel when walking away – she was safe. Her final month with us at St Barnabas, provided endless moments of laughter, deep reflection, and the incredible gift of goodbye.”

At the Hospice and Wellbeing Centres
As you can see, St Barnabas offer a lots of ways for patients’ families to remember a loved one such as our online tribute pages, walking with us at the Torchlight Procession each Christmas and our Ironwork display. We also have reflection space available in our Inpatient Unit gardens and therapeutic outdoor space in our Wellbeing Centres, where families are welcome to use to reflect and remember loved ones.
However, we do discourage physical donations such as plaques, benches and sculptures due to the indirect costs, sustainability of the items and potential risk of damage, which could be upsetting to families.
