Why support LOROS?
Each year, we need to raise more than £9 million to deliver our care. With your help, we can continue to develop LOROS as a place of care and support for thousands of terminally ill patients and their loved ones across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.
Stories from patients and their loved ones
Some of our patients and their loved ones have agreed to share their experience of the Hospice. Have a read here:
"Walking into LOROS with Gary felt like entering a sanctuary. We were warmly welcomed by smiling staff and were led to lovely room overlooking the garden. We felt safe."
"When he finally went to LOROS, he only had three days left — but those three days meant everything. Dad’s room at LOROS felt like a little Airbnb, not a hospital. It was peaceful and opened onto the gardens. We could stay close to him the whole time. It felt calm — almost normal — which was such a comfort."
Raising awareness of the work we do is a major challenge - share your story
We are always looking for patients, families and friends to share their experiences of LOROS to help try to dispel some of the myths surrounding hospice care. Whether you, or someone close to you, have been cared for at the hospice, or LOROS services have been provided in your home, your story could be incredibly powerful.
We really value your support and want to keep in touch about the difference it's making
