  • one month until The Oxford Moonlight Stroll

    Join us at the Oxford Moonlight Stroll
    Nine miles through the streets of our city in aid of Sobell House - if you don't want to walk we'd still love to have you involved by marshaling

    This year's event takes place on the 13th July and will have a sci-fi theme so pull on those Darth Vader costumes, don your Doctor Who scarves and join us on a Starry Trek through the streets of Oxford in aid of the Sobell House Hospice Charity!

Sir Michael Sobell House Hospice was established in 1976 to care for people suffering with a life threatening illness, and for their families.

It 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.

Funding

The specialist palliative care service is jointly funded by The Sobell House Hospice Charity and the Oxford Radcliffe NHS Trust.

The cost of running the Hospice is well over £4 million a year, a large part of which comes from the generosity and support of local companies and individuals throughout the county. 

Status of the Hospice

The hospice is a World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for Palliative Care, comprising several teams of staff and volunteers who work in the community, in lymphoedema care and research, at the acute hospitals in the Oxford Radcliffe Hospitals NHS Trust, a Day Hospice, the In-Patient Unit, and the Bereavement Service.
