Youth Service

This service, based at St. Luke’s House, aims to provide support to young people (up to the age of 19) living with, or affected by Cancer and any other life challenging disease or who are bereaved. This is delivered through one to one support and information, and/or group support to allow young people to share their experiences and socialise within a safe and confidential environment.

The Youth Service is a new service which works collaboratively within St. Luke’s Hospice Community Information and Support Services.

Support undertaken with young people may involve other hospice services:
