• Episode 26 - Adding Life to Days.

  We’re definitely in the build up to the Christmas Season. The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice hosted their annual Christmas Fayre last Sunday. While the building was buzzing there was a quiet calmness in the inpatient unit. Dear Green Place caught up with Staff Nurse Joanne Noble during one of her shift breaks and Sheonad Laidlaw who is a Specialty Doctor in there. After the Christmas Fayre there was the annual lighting of the Christmas Tree in the grounds of the hospice - each light dedicated to the memory of someone who is missed but not forgotten.  www.princeandprincessofwaleshospice.org.uk  www.thebiglight.com/deargreenplace.com

• Episode 25 - Keeping the Hospice Running.

  The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice is a beautiful award winning building. We’ve heard in previous episodes of Dear Green Place how it is like a 5 star hotel. As well as all the medical care and support that goes on at Glasgow’s Hospice there is a strong operations team keeping the place running smoothly. From the moment you are greeted as you walk through the front door by the reception team to housekeeping and maintenance it’s a constant job keeping everything running smoothly. In this episode we spend time with some of the people who work in these teams.  www.princeandprincessofwaleshospice.org.uk  www.thebiglight.com/deargreenplace.com

• EPISODE 23 - Community Outreach

  One of the important roles at the Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice is to make people aware of the services provided and also to receive feedback from those who have used different services. Jacqui Fernie is the Community Engagement Officer. She tells Dear Green Place about this work and how she connects with different, sometimes hard to reach communities. Jacqui also leads the EASE online course (End of Life Skills for Everyone) which aims to help professionals and interested individuals be more comfortable and confident in talking about issues around death and dying. We also hear from psychotherapist and counsellor Tracy McHugh who talks about about how the course helped her in her work.  www.princeandprincessofwaleshospice.org.uk  www.thebiglight.com/deargreenplace.com  https://www.palliativecarescotland.org.uk/ https://www.counselling-directory.org.uk/counsellors/tracy-mchugh Email for details on EASE course - [email protected]
