The hospice also relies on fundraising, volunteers and its charity shops to help fund its services and support the local community.

The room

Aurora's one-wall immersive solution combines high-quality projection, immersive audio and dynamic lighting to transform Barnsley Hospice's clinical environment into calming, familiar or uplifting experiences, allowing patients to revisit cherished memories, explore favourite places or simply enjoy a peaceful escape from their surroundings.

A gentleman with Alzheimer’s came in quite confused and unsettled due to being in and out of hospital. The calming scenes from flowers really grounded him as gardening is something he loved doing at home.

- Melanie Butcher, Ward Manager, Barnsley Hospice

This upgrade will absolutely enhance the experience of our patients and those close to them. At Barnsley Hospice, we are all about person-centred care, and this will go such a long way in helping us to deliver this.
