Kia Ora & Welcome to Cranford Hospice

At Cranford Hospice our vision is to help people make the most of living and dying within a compassionate community. We provide the best possible palliative care, education, support and advice to the people of Hawke’s Bay – from Mahia in the north, to Takapau in the south.

Our website is a place where you can find out more about the important role we play in our community.

Whatever has drawn you here, know that we are here to support you. Like our founder, Dame Cicely Saunders, said:

“You matter because you are you, and you matter till the end of your life. We will do whatever we can to not only help you die well, but to also help you live until you die.”

I couldn’t do without Cranford, because they are guiding me through the process and they have explained what will happen to me in the future. This has put my mind at rest. No matter what path my illness will take I am confident about the care that I’m going to receive, either at the hospice or somewhere else.
