Alun, our brother, had wonderful twinkling blue eyes and a huge smile – which he never lost even up to his last days at St David’s Hospice. All the nurses fell in love with him within a few hours of arriving there.”

Alun lived with a severe learning disability and autism, but this did not define him. At the hospice, he found a haven – a home from home – where his pain could be managed with kindness and dignity, and where his family could feel reassured that he was receiving the very best care at the end of his life.

For families like Alun’s, Memories Meadow is a way to say “thank you”, to remember with love, and to ensure other local people can receive the same compassionate care. Every Peony dedicated in the meadow helps St David’s Hospice be there for the next family who needs us.
