Tony McGuinness Chairman of Kilbryde Hospice Appeal Committee
"The magnificent support & generosity of the people of South Lanarkshire will ensure the success of our Appeal.
The ultimate aim of Kilbryde Hospice is to enhance the quality of remaining life for those suffering from advanced cancer or other terminal illnesses, as well as providing much needed support for their families and carers. At present we are negotiating with NHS Lanarkshire to acquire land at Hairmyres Hospital to build a Kilbryde Hospice that will serve the people of South Lanarkshire"

"We are confronted by the desperate need, on a daily basis, for Palliative care for our patients. Help us to maintain the overwhelming support for the Hospice from local families."
Mushtaq Ahmad
Former Provost of South Lanarkshire
"I am delighted to see the Kilbryde Hospice website up and running and I am sure it will be an invaluable asset to helping achieve the goal so close to all our hearts.This site will help get the message across to as wide an audience as possible about the funds needed and the services that will be provided for the people in Lanarkshire who need it the most. And this website will continue to be of great use once the hospital is up and running as it will provide online up-to-date information about new developments and facilities available at the hospice. So I hope visitors to this website will not only help as much as they can with the appeal but will continue to visit this site for updates on what's happening with our hospice."
