two smiling ladies with funny 'sprout' hats on with the caption. Hospice is not sad and sombre. Strathcarron is full of life, laughter and love. We ask What matters to you most?
A man, smiing with a grey moustache and hair is standing beside a Strathcarron nurse, also smiling with short grey hair. The caption reads, you can be supported in the hospice. Then go home. Then a quote "thanks to this remarkable place, I'm living my life well in the time I have left. Not just existing.
