Southern Hospice Group was formed in 2024 when Chestnut Tree House children’s hospice near Arundel and its sister hospice St Barnabas House in Worthing merged with Martlets hospice in Hove to create one single hospice group.
By combining the strengths and expertise of three hospices, the organisations hope to improve access to specialist palliative and end of life care, achieve greater efficiency, and ultimately benefit patients, families, staff and the wider communities.
Together, we support children, young people and adults who have life-limiting conditions which will significantly shorten their lives. We help those we care for, and their loved ones, to make the most of the precious time they have left together. Our expert palliative services support local communities across Sussex and South East Hampshire – at our hospice sites and in people’s homes.
