Walk for Journey Home Hospice Windsor 2025

At Journey Home Hospice, we strive to create a compassionate and welcoming environment for our patients, ensuring they can spend their final days with dignity and care. Your contribution helps the hospice to provide trauma-informed, culturally safe, and harm-reducing approaches to end-of-life care, all within a home-like setting.A patient at the hospice sits facing away from the camera and looking outside to the street by the window.

As you may know, many individuals experiencing homelessness face tremendous challenges, particularly at the end of life. For these individuals, the desire to die at home often remains unfulfilled, leaving them without the comfort of companionship or care. Since Journey Home Hospice Windsor was opened in 2022, we have been dedicated to addressing this critical need for care that encompasses the whole person. Our mission is not just about providing medical care; it’s about offering solace, respect, and a sense of belonging during life’s most difficult moments.

Your generous gift allows our hospice to enhance programs, from wellness activities to volunteer services, and to provide fresh, comforting meals that cater to our patients’ preferences. It creates an environment where everyone is treated with kindness and dignity, embodying a spirit of love and compassion.

In the words of a former patient, Paul, “I came here to Journey Home with nothing, and I was given so much – more than I ever could have dreamed. People don’t think that a fresh pair of pyjamas or watching your favourite old TV show whenever you want are a big deal. But after being homeless these things are a huge gift to me. Even though I know I don’t have much time, I do feel like myself again.” Together, we are making a meaningful difference in the lives of the most vulnerable in our community, ensuring they are not forgotten.
