As 30 July is the International Day of Friendship, we thought we would share some comments from patients, their families and our staff about companionship and support.

Julie Surtees is a nursing sister on our Hospice at Home team. She tells us about her role and the support she provides out in the community.

Two weeks ago, we shared a Zoom panel discussion featuring four members of our expert clinical team: 'A Martlets Conversation – answering your questions about death and dying'.   

On 16 September, Meta Wells-Thorpe will be making the 450ft leap from Brighton’s iconic i360 tower to fundraise for Martlets.

Stephen Atkins is a senior social worker in our patient and family support team. He tells us about his role and the support he provides to Martlets’ patients, their carers, and their families.

Read Sophia's story to hear how she took on the thrilling challenge and why you should take the leap this September for Martlets too.

Did you know that you can also shop with us on our online Martlets Charity Shops? Find out how you can support us online here.

Christine and Adrian are getting married on 8 September and, instead of wedding presents, are asking family and friends to consider making a donation to Martlets.

During the pandemic we have continued to run many of our social and therapeutic groups, delivering sessions online via Zoom to patients and their partners, carers and families.
