This incredible hospice holds a special place in many hearts, offering compassionate support and end-of-life care to individuals and their families when they need it most. When we heard that the staff areas upstairs were in need of a refresh, we were more than happy to roll up our sleeves.
The focus for the day was on repainting the long hallway and the staff kitchen, both located in the upstairs area of the hospice. These are spaces where the dedicated hospice team takes short breaks and finds a moment of calm during their demanding days, and we wanted to help make them as welcoming as possible.
Before we could get started with the painting, there was plenty of prep work to be done, from sanding down walls and filling in cracks to taping edges and protecting floors. By working effectively together, we divided the tasks and got straight to work.

It was a great reminder of how effective teamwork can be, not just in our everyday work at TIB Services, but also in making a positive difference to our community. From prep to the final coat, we were proud to leave the space brighter and cleaner for the hospice’s hardworking staff.
Volunteering at St Andrew’s Hospice was a truly rewarding experience. It gave us the chance to contribute to a cause that is close to home, while showing our appreciation for the remarkable staff who dedicate their time to helping others.
We’re always looking for new ways to support local charities and projects, and we are proud that our team continues to step up and give back whenever the opportunity arises.

We’ve valued every experience and story shared with us during our volunteering work. This marks our third volunteering project, following earlier efforts at Zoe’s Place Baby Hospice and Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People. Each opportunity deepens our commitment to supporting local communities and helps us better understand their unique needs.
