Hospices may be associated with death, dying and sadness. But health professionals who work in them say it's about much more than that.
As part of National Hospice Care Week, staff at LOROS in Leicestershire are keen to dispel some of the myths and negative stereotypes.
Please take a couple of minutes to watch this video, which was produced by ITV.
Thank you Shantaben, for helping us to spread our message about why Hospice care counts.
Staff at LOROS Hospice – including nurses on the inpatient ward – swapped their uniforms for pyjamas yesterday, as part of a fundraiser celebrating the launch of a new charity sleepwear range.
40 giant elephants from LOROS Hospice’s Stomp Round Leicester art trail were auctioned off last night, raising a mammoth £286,800 for the charity.
Make sure to tune in to BBC East Midlands Today at 6.30pm on Friday 3rd October, because we’re going live from the Hospice alongside our Elephants!
