Welcome to the summer edition of The Lantern.
As the new Chief Executive of Farleigh Hospice, I hope you enjoy this edition of our charity magazine.
Our front cover story is the exciting weekend we have planned on 16-17 September. You are invited to a garden fete at our hospice building then please join our 25th Cycle for Life bike ride.
If you would like to take on a greater challenge for Farleigh, read all about our Trek for Life in the mountains of Morocco.
There is also useful information on how to write or update your Will with a qualified solicitor during Make a Will Month, in return for a donation to Farleigh.
One of our Healthcare Assistants describes a typical day in our Inpatient Unit and we hear from an international student who enjoyed a placement with that care team.
We also give an update from our bereavement team.
We are already feeling festive! Start your shopping early with our Christmas catalogue and order your 2024 Farleigh calendar of beautiful Essex photos. If you work in a nursery or school, find out how you can be part of our Reindeer Run!
Finally, I introduce myself and give an update on my first few weeks working here at Farleigh. I feel very fortunate to be part of this much-loved and respected charity at the heart of such a supportive local community.
It is because you continue to care that Farleigh Hospice can – thank you.
Sarah Green
Chief Executive
