That this House notes the work of the Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice, based
in Bellahouston Park, Glasgow, a Scottish charity that provides palliative care to
people living in and around Glasgow; supports the dedicated staff and large team of
volunteers which supports patients and families with specialist holistic care helping
them to cope with the consequences of being diagnosed with a lifelimiting or life-shortening
illness; thanks the team of doctors, nurses, therapists, counsellors, chaplains, social
workers and others who treat patients in their own homes, at the hospice or other
places of care; congratulates the team behind the new £21 million Sengetun inspired
Hospice in a picturesque location in Bellahouston Park which has put comfort at the
forefront of its design and has allowed patients to feel at home in a bright, open
space, as well offering them privacy they need when required; welcomes the ability
of the new Hospice to offer specialist accommodation for patients as young as 16-years-old;
and wishes them success as a new community hub within Glasgow which offers conferencing
facilities and a café.
