When a family has been told that there’s no cure for their loved one’s illness, Havens Hospices can help. We’re here to make the journey as comfortable as possible, controlling pain and medication, offering respite and caring for adults, babies and children.

A new hospice for Southend, Castle Point and Rochford is now open. Based in Prittlewell, it can care for twice as many patients, offer more treatments, and support more families in a welcoming and therapeutic environment which contrasts with the stark, clinical atmosphere many people want to avoid at the end of their lives.
