Our Impact in 2025

As we come up to the end of another year, it is time to reflect on our impact in 2025.

This year was one of growth and adaptation. The New West Hospice Society has continued to provide support for residents of New Westminster at the end of life, and renewed commitment to our programming through community based partnerships.

We also mark the end of a cycle in our strategic planning and look ahead to the new year, our 10 year anniversary.
