Why Helen's Trust is important

"I remember Mum's final return home. As we got her out of the car she looked at the house, smiled and breathed a deep sigh of happiness; her relief was palpable. It was important for us the family too as we were able to be involved in her care enabling us to show how much she was loved and to say all the things we needed to in a safe environment. It was a real privilege to be part of the last stage of Mum's life. Spending her last days at home meant Mum was able to bring her life to a proper conclusion surrounded by those who adored her."

"The support given by Helen's Trust meant that my wife did not have the discomfort or hassle of a journey to hospital or a realisation that she would never return home. Thanks to a qualified nurse being made available each night, we were able to get some rest, reassured in the knowledge that any needs, such as pain relief, would be applied."

"We had the opportunity to spend her last days together, talking, reminiscing in a wonderful relaxed atmosphere, all thanks to Helen's Trust. It has certainly helped me to cope with my grief, to be able to nurse a loved one in their home environment is a real gift......thank you."
