We are a charity built on the support of our local community – quite literally, with the original Hospice building at Stoke Mandeville Hospital funded by a major fundraising campaign across Aylesbury Vale in the 1980s. And we remain true to the vision of our founder, Barbara Lucas, to provide local dedicated hospice care for terminally ill patients.
Barbara was inspired to launch the ‘Aylesbury Hospice Appeal’ following the death of her father on a busy general ward in Stoke Mandeville Hospital – at the time there was no hospice care provision between Milton Keynes and Oxford.
Since the Hospice opened in October 1989 many thousands of patients have accessed its services which extend from care after diagnosis with terminal or life limiting illness until a patient’s final days and hours, and then support after loss for the families of our patients through the Bereavement Support Service.
We are committed to ensuring that excellent hospice care continues to be available to patients and their families across Buckinghamshire and its borders, wherever and whenever they need it.

Our vision is for local patients with life-limiting illnesses, and their families, to be able to access the best possible care and support, whenever and wherever they need it.

Please support us in whatever way you can to help keep our dedicated and specialist care available for those who need it.
