Education

Education at St Wilfrid’s: One of the central beliefs concerning palliative care that Cicely Saunders repeatedly made was the role that education had in easing suffering to all people, not just those who found themselves being cared for within the hospice walls. To this end St Wilfrid’s offers a range of educational opportunities which hopefully offers something of interest to all people in our area: as demonstrated by our education programme.
