How your support helps Longfield

At Longfield we believe every person in Gloucestershire who is touched by a life-limiting illness should be able to get free hospice care. We are a charity which relies on voluntary donations for 85% of our income.

We recognise and understand that a diagnosis of a life-limiting illness brings a difficult and emotional time. Here at Longfield we listen to our patients to help answer worries and questions, and support them and those around them.
