The Forget Me Not Centre at St John’s Hospice will provide whole family bereavement support for families in north Lancashire, the South Lakes and parts of North Yorkshire, both at the centre and out in the community; in homes and supporting schools.
The building, which is in the hospice’s grounds in Slyne Road, was generously funded by Nick and Barbara Scholes, who had up until now remained anonymous.
Our photographer Kelvin Stuttard went for a look around the new centre at an official opening event on Wednesday.
