St Luke’s Hospice Plymouth, Caring For You No Matter Where

St Luke’s Hospice Plymouth is an independent charity providing specialist advice and support to people with progressive life-limiting illnesses in Plymouth, South West Devon and East Cornwall. We believe that everyone deserves quality end of life care, no matter where.

We work with our community, in partnership with others, to achieve dignity, comfort and choice for people affected by life-limiting illnesses through delivering and influencing exceptional care.

We need your support

Our vision is a community where no person has to die alone, in pain or distress. In order to continue our vital work, we need to raise vital funds each and every year. Without your support this would not be possible.

BLOG: Tender care at home eases singing star Jean’s farewell

Glamorous singing star, TV character actress, inspirational and loving mother, vivacious and supportive grandmother and great grandmother, Jean Dike lived her extraordinarily full life with dignity, elegance and grace until the very end. One of Plymouth’s best-loved entertainers and matriarch of a large, unconventional, artistic family, she embraced several identities during her lifetime. Some knew her by her professional name, June Marlow, her grandchildren and close friends called her Jeanie, but she began life on 15 January 1931 as Jean Moulder, raised in the heart of Plymouth’s Barbican when it was a poor but tightknit and supportive community.

BLOG: Going the extra mile for Albion’s ‘Queen’ Anne: Sam’s tribute at Men’s Day Out

One man is going the extra mile – literally – at our Men’s Day Out next week, to honour Plymouth Albion’s beloved ‘Queen’ – Anne Prue. Sam Lever, from Plymouth, is the Vice-chairman and interim secretary for Plymouth Albion 200club. On Saturday 14 March he will be walking our Men’s Day Out for the second year running in memory of Anne, who was an avid supporter of St Luke’s and secretary of the 200club.

BLOG: By Royal invitation…How we flew the flag for St Luke’s at the King’s reception for carers

As His Majesty reached out to grasp my hand, the significance of the momentous occasion suddenly hit me. There, in the historic hallows of St George’s Hall, as the sun set behind Windsor Castle, not only was I meeting King Charles face-to-face, but I was bestowed with a right royal opportunity to sing St Luke’s praises to the gothic-beamed rafters in the most illustrious company possible. It was an incredible privilege to be one of just four people selected to represent the hospice at such a prestigious celebration of carers...

BLOG: Josie’s journey: a legacy of love and awareness

Sometimes, life is not as long as we expect, or hope it will be. Receiving a terminal diagnosis can feel shattering on every level. Yet with tenderness, the utmost sensitivity - and kindness that never wavers - the right care and support can bring peace to an anxious mind and soothe a frightened heart. At Turnchapel, where talented artist Josie is a patient, she is surrounded by those who matter most to her: husband Laith – her ‘rock’ - and their two bright, beautiful girls, Becca, aged 10, and Sophie, 6. Living with terminal cancer, Josie knows time is running short, yet within the peace of the specialist unit, her story is not dominated by sadness.

BLOG: Supporting our people to learn, grow and thrive: National Apprenticeship Week 2026

This Apprenticeship Week, we’re celebrating the people at St Luke’s who are growing their skills, building their confidence and taking the next step in their careers - all while continuing to make a difference every day. We now have nine members of staff undertaking apprenticeships across the organisation - from our clinical and care teams to retail, admin, finance, IT and HR. This week we wanted to shine a light on the nurses who have been leading the way for career development.
