Exeter Hospiscare staff have been touched by a beautiful poem written about them by a patient’s 12-year-old granddaughter.

Just six weeks earlier he had been diagnosed with bowel cancer. Geoff’s family was overwhelmed by the care they all received at Searle House Hospice and Josie wrote about this in her poem entitled: Hos-Peace-Care. “I found it easier to express my feelings in a poem rather than...

For the Ospreys clash, which will kick-off at the slightly later time of 3.15pm, any serving member of the...
