What the petition asks
Herriot Hospice are ceasing to provide end of life care.Funding has been cut and the charity has had to subsidise up to 60%.It has been able to do this due to legacy, but this has been spent.It has decided to cease the service from 1/08/16 as it is not prepared to compromise on the service.
My mother was diagnosed with cancer in 2014. Her wish was that she could stay at home to die. Herriot Hospice end of life care made this possible. These services must be allowed to operate with funding. My family are humbled by the services the devoted people provided and how they looked after her. Please help try to promote and share this petition.
