Woking & Sam Beare Hospices
To be a centre of excellence delivering specialist palliative care, from the heart of North West Surrey, to people with life-limiting illnesses and support to those important to them. To continually improve by gaining, sharing and applying knowledge. To raise both an awareness of our activities and the funds to deliver them.
ABOUT US: 

Dont be fooled we are a Hospice but many of our volunteer vacancies are not medically related

We have a large retail arm and distribution centre as well as Tea Bar at Guildford magistrates court as part of our fundraising

We have roles with regular commitment and much more ad-hoc

WHY OUR WORK MATTERS: 

Hospice based end of life care makes such a difference both to the individual and the family around them. We are a charity who are only part funded by the NHS so we rely on the generous donations of time and money by our volunteers and supporters.

All our inpatients have a single en-suite room, families can stay with their loved ones, and the biggest secret is that 70% of our care is in the community helping people to acheive their wish to die at home wherever possible.

OUR VALUES: 
Our Values: C.A.R.E. Caring and Compassion We will care with compassion, communicate with honesty and sensitivity, facilitate understanding and choice and ensure both respect and dignity. Accountability We will dedicate ourselves to safeguard and support our patients, their families, our volunteers and our staff by working with the highest professional and ethical standards. Respect We will respect all regardless of their ability, age, gender, race or sexual orientation and we will not tolerate prejudice of any kind. Excellence We will remain committed to continual learning and development to ensure we deliver excellence in all that we do.
OUR AWARDS: 
Queens Award for Volunteering
THINGS WE ARE PROUD OF: 
Our patients families are as supported as the patient, our care does not end when the patient dies.
WHAT WE LOOK FOR IN OUR PEOPLE:

HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT: 

We are very much a local Charity covering much of North Surrey
