A registered charity providing support for Agape House, Bermudaâ€™s only inpatient hospice facility.

Friends of Hospice (Charity #391) provides programmes and volunteer services to support Agape House, Bermudaâ€™s only hospice and palliative care centre. We cover the costs of the kitchen and our Chef provides nutritious meals including any and all special requests. We meet the needs of the patient, their family and loved ones through our various support services. Our programmes include Day Hospice; Care Givers Respite; Bereavement services and Companioning the Dying.

Our volunteers provide an invaluable service to the hospice to assist with meal service provision, therapeutic massage, art therapy, pet therapy, reception work, and gardening. We offer specific training for volunteers who are interested in Companioning the Dying. Volunteers also help us with our major events and fundraisers throughout the year.
