Important announcement

Wexford Hospice Homecare are delighted to confirm that from December 2023 onwards – the Hospice service will now be fully funded and operated by the HSE.

The amicable and voluntary transfer of the successful service was as a result of the 33 years of service, donation and contribution from the people of Wexford. During 2024 – the Hospice as a registered Charity will begin the process of voluntarily winding down, as we now no longer fund the service.

In accordance with our constitution – in the short term we will continue to accept the donations for events that were organised in advance, but would advise that any new events be directed to other Wexford based and registered Charities in the palliative or cancer care sector.

Due to the generosity of the people of Wexford over the last three decades – there will be an excess fund of donations. In accordance with our constitution – this will be distributed later in the year to other palliative or cancer related charities that are based or operate within County Wexford.

We will be holding a service of Thanksgiving in Enniscorthy Cathedral at 7pm on Friday April 26th, 2024 to recognise the contribution of all those who have supported the Hospice.
