The one thing we know will happen to all of us is that we will die and to have the opportunity for a good death threatened is extremely worrying. Hospices also provide vital support to hospital bed pressures. @trcywilcocks @LauraGOvergate @OvergateHospice @DocOvergate

Lovely to see our @CHFTNHS Calderdale community staff working with @OvergateHospice in this film
We are #TeamCHFT. Over the course of a week, we captured on film just some of the compassionate care that our teams deliver, both inside our hospital walls and in the community. One Culture of Care is at the heart of everything we do. 💙

Thank you to everyone that purchased a Happy Valley candle and helped us raise £5000.00 for @OvergateHospice! We're sorry if you missed out this time, however we're speaking with our glass supplier and hope to create another batch for sale very soon.

Earlier this week we welcomed a few student paramedics into the inpatient unit. Whilst visiting they have been learning about the holistic work we do at the Hospice and by coming in they can see first hand how the type of care we give benefits patients.

So enjoyed this morning speaking in front of over 100 people about the inequalities in end of life care, and how in Calderdale and @OvergateHospice we are trying to bridge that gap #TheValueOfDeath

One of our favourite artists @The_Anchoress is currently at no 13 in the UK Official Album mid-week charts. It is VERY hard for artists on small indie labels to compete with the major labels so we're helping spread the word. Here's the link >> TheAnchoress.lnk.to/TheArtOf… PLEASE RT

Replying to @Calderdale
@Calderdale we are struggling to get through to your phone line to ask if Hullen Edge Road could be cleared of snow as we are expecting two admissions of poorly patients today. Any help would be appreciated! #calderdalecommunity

And my amazing mum is one of them! She received the vaccine at 7pm this evening!! 🥰🥰
Today has been emotional for our Overgate family as a small number of frontline staff have received the Covid-19 vaccine, helping us continue to care for our community. Our thanks go to our colleagues at the Calderdale CCG and primary care networks for making this possible ❤️
