We’re going live on the BBC!

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!

The broadcast will shine a light on some of the amazing work happening here at LOROS – from our brilliant CNS nurses and Day Hospice team, to the incredible patients and families we support every day.

They’ll also be exploring the vital topic of hospice funding, and giving a special shout-out to our 40th anniversary and The Elephants' Big Day Out taking place this weekend.

Don’t miss it – it’s going to be something really special.
