Woodlands Hospice is a registered charity dedicated to providing hospice care for the people of North Liverpool, South Sefton and Kirkby in Knowsley. Hospice care, also referred to as 'Specialist Palliative Care', aims to improve the lives of people who have a life-limiting illness. It helps them to live actively and be as independent as they can be and this support often extends to patients' carers, family and close friends. Originally founded in 1996, they are situated in a modern, light and welcoming purpose-built building within the Aintree University Hospital campus. Their care is 'holistic', which means that as well as taking care of patients' physical needs, their emotional, social and spiritual needs are also looked after.
