THANK YOU FOR HELPING THE PATIENTS WE CARE FOR
A huge thank you to ANZ Staff Foundation and Pelorus Trust for their support and generosity!
The funding we received through their grants programme enabled us to purchase high-quality, specialist bariatric equipment for our patients living with life-limiting and terminal illnesses.
The acquisition of this specialised equipment is one way we can achieve our vision to ensure people in our community receive equitable, responsive and proactive palliative care support.
This equipment will help patients both in our hospice, and those who wish to remain at home for their end-of-life care. It will also help their family members care for their loved ones safely.
With this equipment, our patients will be better equipped to manage pain and other symptoms, ultimately fostering a more comfortable and fuller life.
Thank you again ANZ Staff Foundation and Pelorus Trust. Your generosity positively impacts the patients and families we care for.

GOOD IN THE HOOD
Since its launch in 2013, Z service stations have donated almost $10 million to local groups who are doing great things right across Aotearoa New Zealand.
We were honoured to once again be one of the selected charities chosen for Z Energy’s Good in the Hood campaign.
Thank you to Z Energy, Remutaka, Z Vic Corner and Z Hutt Road and to all those who popped an orange token in the Te Omanga Hospice slot during the promotions.
Together you raised $3,301.52 to help support the patients and families we care for in our community.
