Charity
For thirty years Prospect Hospice has been where people have turned to for dedicated end of life care in Swindon, Marlborough and North Wiltshire. Our care has expanded and evolved over the years, and today our aim is to bring care, comfort and confidence for patients, and practical and emotional support for their carers and family. We’re based at Wroughton, near Swindon, and our work serves a community of more than 300,000 people, from our main towns of Swindon and Marlborough, and out to the towns and villages across the region. Our community first supported the idea of a Hospice here in 1980, and has continued to back our work ever since. It’s thanks to you that we can care for around 1400 patients and their family members each year, around the clock, 365 days of the year. It costs around £4.5m to deliver our care each year, three quarters of which we must raise ourselves. Thank you for supporting Prospect Hospice. We couldn’t be here without you!

Hello all...
As you may or may not know, my nan (the duchess) passed away just before christmas of pancreatic cancer. The prospect hospice, swindon branch, were amazing during the hard times and really made the final part of my nans life a lot easier, not just for my nan but for all of us.
Me and my brother are running a charity football match during august between our respective teams. This will not even cover half of what they have done for us. So i am going to spend the whole month of August slowly shaving/waxing my body until i am completely bald.
There will be targets for the next part of the shave that i hope you kind friends and family will help me reach.
Please leave your email address as i will be sending photo and video updates of the progress.
many thanks to everyone
