Welcome

Wigan & Leigh Hospice moved into its purpose built accommodation in December 1997 having outgrown its previous premises in Poolstock, Wigan. Our location in Hindley is ideal in that it is at the centre of the population that we serve. The Hospice is modern, light and airy and is surrounded by beautiful gardens with seating areas and water features.

We are very proud of our building and grounds and are grateful for the support of the people of Wigan and Leigh which has allowed us to continue to offer the highest standards of care for our patients and their families.

From these facilities, the Hospice provides the following services:

• In patient unit
• Day Hospice
• Specialist community nursing team (Home Care)
• Complementary therapies including:
  • Aromatherapy
  • Reflexology
  • Hypnotherapy and relaxation
  • Counselling - a listening ear
