HOSPICE INFORMATION SERVICE

The Hospice Information Service at St Christopher's is a worldwide resource for health professionals and members of the public who are caring for someone with cancer or other life-threatening illness. The Service publishes the Directory of Hospice and Palliative Care Services in the UK and Ireland which includes details of hospices, palliative care teams providing care at home and in hospital, as well as other useful contacts. Information on overseas hospice care is also available.

Enquiries by telephone or letter are welcomed or send a large (9''x11'') self addressed envelope with three first class stamps for a copy of the UK Directory. The UK Directory is also available on the Internet at the above website.
