Introducing the Verity Waterlow Inpatient Unit

Visitors to the Hospice may have noticed that our Inpatient Unit has been renamed. We were very fortunate to receive an incredible donation from a local charitable trust; The Verity Waterlow Endowment Fund. Verity Waterlow was a nurse by profession and lived locally. After her death she left her legacy in trust to help fund end of life care in the Horsted Keynes area. In 2022 we were chosen by the trustees to receive a portion of the trust in support of the Hospice. In honour of this and to reflect our enormous gratitude, we have chosen to name our Inpatient Unit after Verity. We have 8 beds on our ward and we want to increase this in the near future to help more local people when they need it most.
