Description
Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice offers specialist palliative care in a compassionate and friendly environment. As an independent charitable trust and a centre of excellence, we aim to provide equitable supportive care to those with life-limiting illness and to their families and friends.
Phyllis Tuckwell was a local mother of three who was diagnosed with caner in 1949. This picture shows her with one of her grandsons. Since the Hospice named in her honour was opened in 1979, more than 6000 local people facing a terminal illness have been cared for at the Hospice and in their homes.
Motor neurone disease (MND) is a progressive degenerative disease affecting the motor neurons in the brain and spinal column. Characteristically, a patient with MND loses the function of his limbs, and then muscles in the trunk and neck begin to waste.
