Countess of Brecknock Hospice Trust

Who we are

The Countess of Brecknock Hospice Trust is a small but ambitious charity that supports the patients and staff of the Countess of Brecknock Hospice based in Andover.  The Hospice provides outstanding palliative and end of life care to adults suffering from life-limiting illness who live in Andover, Stockbridge and surrounding villages, together with comfort and support for their families, friends and carers.  As well as the inpatient unit, the Hospice provides a community service including Hospice at Home and Home Care.  An on-site Day Centre normally operates three days a week.  Staff also provide line care and blood transfusions for local patients.  Over 1000 patients and their families use hospice services each year.

The Hospice is run and managed by Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (HHFT) and, as partners, the Charity supports its vision to provide outstanding care for every patient.

HHFT uses the acronym CARE to present its values and we embrace these values:

Compassion, caring about our patients, their families, staff, supporters and volunteers.

Accountable and responsible, always improving.

Respect for all.

Encouraging and challenging each other to always do our best.
