| Welcome
to the Butterfly Hospice Trust, a local
charity based in Boston, Lincolnshire. Our aim
is to build a hospice
providing up to six in-patient palliative care beds on
our four
acre site
at the rear of Pilgrim Hospital.
The Trust comprises a team of local people
drawn from the medical profession, local
business/others who believe that the specialist
medical care environment for those with a life
limiting illness is critical: and that
support to family, friends/loved ones is
part of the holistic approach offered by hospice
care.
Liaison
with interested parties such as United
Lincolnshire Hospital Trust, Boston Borough
Council, NHS Lincolnshire,
other hospice care providers & statutory and voluntary bodies is
ongoing.
We have the support
of local communities, the medical professi and
many businesses - all committed to providing
this facility locally for the benefit of
the South East Lincolnshire community - help
us to make
this happen.

| "Much
can be learned from the holistic approach to care
which has been pioneered by hospice and specialist
palliative care services in this country over the
pasty 40 years. The pioneering work of the late
dame Cicely Saunders and others has shown what can
be achieved through close attention to the physical,
psychological, social and spiritual needs of
patients and their families"
