Professor Katherine Clar, Area Director of Palliative Care said the hospice owes a lot to the selfless work of the community. “We recognise that the hospice is very much in the hearts and minds of the people of the Hunter region and it is important we celebrate the contribution of many in establishing and being part of an important community service,”.
