Introduction

St John's Hospice has provided free palliative care for patients within the local area of North Lancashire, South Lakes and North Yorkshire for many decades.  The original St John of God Hospital at Silverdale accepted its first patient in 1971 and, following years of fundraising, the current hospice opened its doors to the first five patients in December 1985.  35 years on, the same quality of personal care, love and commitment continue to drive the ethos of St John's Hospice.

For the past 9 years local piano teacher, Yvette Price, has staged an annual Christmas concert to raise funds for the Hospice, traditionally held in St. Martin's Chapel, University of Cumbria and has to date raised over £34,000.  This year's pre-recorded concert takes place here, online.
