About Us

The purpose of Sobell House Hospice Charity is to support the Sir Michael Sobell House Hospice in providing palliative and end of life care to the residents of Oxfordshire.

The hospice currently costs around £4 million a year to run, much of which is raised through the support and generosity of individuals and companies throughout the community.

The Hospice offers physical, psychological, social and spiritual care to those facing life threatening illness, death and bereavement. The focus is on quality of life, respecting the uniqueness of each person, and respect for the dignity of all users of the service.

The following Mission Statement continues to underpin the vital work of the hospice:

"Our aim is to offer psychological, social and spiritual care to those facing illness, death and bereavement. In partnership with all those involved, we focus on quality of life, respecting the uniqueness of each person who comes to the Hospice. We seek to contribute to the development of palliative care through education and research."

The Sobell House Hospice Charity is a member of the Fundraising Standards Board
