Nelson Tasman Hospice
Providing specialist palliative care services to the region
Nelson Tasman Hospice provides specialist palliative care services for people of all ages with life-limiting illnesses, supporting them, their whānau and carers, through illness, death and bereavement.
Our services are free of charge; however, it does cost to provide them. At present we receive 52% of our annual running costs from Nelson Marlborough DHB, the remaining 48% must be raised every year. We could not continue providing these services without the generosity of our corporate sponsors and community, or our Hospice Shops
