Introducing our 10-year strategy

At Garden House Hospice Care, we’ve always stood for compassion, dignity, and support. But the world is changing. People are living longer, often with complex, long-term conditions. That’s why we’re launching a bold new 10-year strategy to transform how we care, who we reach, and how we sustain our work for the future.

We believe care shouldn’t begin at the end. It should start earlier - when someone is diagnosed, when everyday life becomes difficult, or when a family needs help to cope. Our new approach is about walking alongside people throughout their journey, offering comfort, guidance, and practical support every step of the way.

This means moving beyond traditional hospice care to a more inclusive model. We want to support not just those nearing the end of life, but also those living with serious, long-term conditions like heart failure, dementia, or COPD as well as the families and carers supporting them.

The need is growing. By 2045, the number of people aged 85 and over in the UK will nearly double. To meet this challenge, we’re expanding how and where we provide care - delivering more support at home, using digital tools for remote access, and developing flexible community spaces that make it easier for people to connect with us.

To continue this work, we must also secure our future. That means diversifying our income through new partnerships, social enterprises, and smarter systems so we can keep caring now and for years to come.

At the heart of this strategy is a clear promise: every person matters. Whether you’re a patient, carer, loved one, or part of our wider community - your journey matters to us.

We’re proud to share this next chapter with you. You’ve supported us to this point, and we hope you’ll walk beside us as we look to the future.
