The grief journey is unique for everyone. We have trained volunteers, bereavement groups, and resources to support you.
For health-care providers
The Hospice Society works with general practitioners, specialists, and non-medical organizations to enhance palliative support to patients.

Do you have art you aren’t displaying? Art you are willing to donate?
Powell River Hospice is teaming up with the Sunshine Gogos (the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign: A division of the Stephen Lewis Foundation). We’re looking for donations of paintings, drawings, photographic prints, collages, and two dimensional work that can hang on a wall. Our sale will be in Spring 2020; we are collecting now.
