Hospice Hub: Bereavement Drop-In
Address
Magnolia Place, Heart of Kent Hospice, Preston Hall, Aylesford, Maidstone, Kent, ME20 7PU
What we do
This session is for the family and important people of patients who have died whilst under the care of the Hospice. There is no need to pre-book. Come and speak with someone about your grief, whether you are newly bereaved, or it’s been several months or even up to two years after your loss. Wednesdays, 10:00am-11:30am.
At these sessions we aim to provide:
Someone to listen to you
Signposting you to other bereavement services within the Hospice – Grief Talks group, 1:1 counselling
Signposting you to bereavement groups and activities in the locality
A chance to talk with a counsellor or trained volunteer in confidence
An opportunity to talk to others in a similar situation, for some knowing that they are not alone with what they are experiencing is helpful and comforting.
Magnolia Place is a light, airy and cheerful space, where every week our Hospice colleagues and volunteers will offer a range of services, many of which operate on a flexible drop-in basis. Patients and carers can socialise, speak to members of our Drop-in Team, and attend optional supportive sessions.

Community Palliative Care Specialist Nurse
