Maria Hewitt - Receptionist

My involvement with Beaumond House began in 2004 when I started volunteering in Day Therapy  when my triplets started school.  I still volunteer in Day Therapy every Wednesday, also now being a volunteer driver I transport patients from their home and back too.

I currently work part-time on Reception, having previously worked for over 2 years in the Fundraising Department.  Apart from answering the phone and welcoming visitors, I really enjoy chatting to the patients and their families. 

I have witnessed personally how BH can help in times of desperation.  My lovely Mum benefitted from this fantastic place when she enjoyed attending BH as a day Therapy patient for over a year, giving my dad a much needed and really appreciated weekly break. 

Also, a really close friend used the Hospice at Home service when she was poorly and spent her final hours in a place she felt safe.

In 2019 I took part in the Annapurna Sunrise Trek in Nepal raising funds for BH.  I raised over £3000 and collectively we raised over £9000 between 5 of us.

I am immensely proud to tell people I work here and am always keen to spread the word about BH and the fantastic work it does for our local community.

Joanne Erwin, In Patients Nurse

I feel privileged to work at Beaumond House and be part of a wonderful team who care for people with life limiting and terminal illnesses whilst supporting their families too.  

I feel a valued member of the nursing team.  

Trysh Williams, Health Care Assistant

Caring for those with a life limiting illness is a real privilege.

Supporting patients and their families here at Beaumond House is at the very heart of all that we do and I am so very proud to be part of such a caring and professional team.

Tracy Drakes, Health Care Assistant

I work at Beaumond House as a Health Care Assistant and I also work in the community for our Hospice at Home team.

I have been at BH for nearly a year now and I have my dream job!  I love this place and am so proud to put on the uniform and come to work.

It’s a house full of love compassion, passion and laughter.  I couldn’t think of anywhere else I’d rather be.
