Willen Hospice offers a range of placements for both qualified and trainee health and allied professionals with an interest in specialist palliative care.
We are delighted to receive applications for placements at the Hospice. Please remember that it takes time to consider requests and put the necessary arrangements in place in a small organisation. Students should apply early in a placement so that we can meet individual needs.
