Celebrating 120 years of St Joseph’s Hospice
2025 marks 120 years since St Joseph’s Hospice first opened its doors to the people of East London.
In that time, we have cared for thousands of local people and families across Hackney and beyond, providing our compassionate care completely free of charge to people facing a life-limiting diagnosis. 120 years is a huge milestone, but everything we have achieved in that time has only been possible thanks to the incredible generosity of our community.
Life Magazine: Issue 44
We’re thrilled to share that the Winter 2025 issue of our hospice magazine, Life, is out now!
It’s our first issue of the year…and it’s an extra-special edition as it marks our 120th birthday on 15th January 2025!
The entire issue is available to read online.
