Farleigh Hospice provide support and care to people suffering life-limiting illnesses and also to those who have been bereaved. Services include symptom management, psychosocial support and pre and post bereavement support.
Farleigh Hospice's core principles include being caring, respectful, innovative and dedicated. It aims to provide professional and compassionate services, welcome individuality, promote dignity and choice, and to "work as a committed team who strive for excellence in everything they do."
As part of their plan to communicate their values better across the organisation, the Chief Executive, Alison Stevens, has a bi-weekly blog that is used to share company updates, good news stories and thank people for outstanding work. It is posted on the intranet and emailed, and paper copies are put on notice boards as well as being sent to their charity shops across Essex.
I feel proud to work for this organisation

They work closely with Mencap by providing garden space for their service users to build and establish a vegetable garden. The produce they grow is used in the hospice kitchen and food waste from the kitchen and cafe is composted for use in the garden.
This organisation is run on strong values / principles
To improve employee engagement they introduced a monthly 'ideas hub' to generate discussion and feedback on what is going well and what is not going so well within the organisation. During these hubs, staff were encouraged to identify and introduce the topics for discussion.
