Official information

Strathcarron Hospice provides specialist care and support for individuals with serious, often incurable illnesses, focusing on enhancing quality of life. The hospice serves the Forth Valley, Cumbernauld, and Kilsyth areas, with a significant portion of care delivered in the community rather than within the hospice building itself.

From the Wikipedia article

Strathcarron Hospice is a free palliative care resource in Denny, Scotland, serving people in the Forth Valley and North Lanarkshire areas. It was established in 1981 by Dr. Harold Lyon and friends, and cares for patients with an active, life-limiting disease. It relies heavily on volunteers and fundraising to provide its service.
