Wisdom Hospice Charity is dedicated to supporting the work of the Wisdom Hospice, providing specialised end of life care to local people, their families, friends and carers whether at home, in the hospice or hospital. 

The Wisdom Hospice was the vision of a local resident, Molly Wisdom, after she was diagnosed with cancer, and recognised the need for a hospice in the Medway and Swale area....

She and others began raising money, she was reluctant to use her own name for the fund. Everyone explained that “Wisdom” was an ideal name, so the monies were called the Wisdom Fund for a hospice. Eventually the building work was complete and the hospice was officially opened on the 31st October 1984, by HM The Queen.

The Friends of the Wisdom Hospice was initially run and managed by a group of volunteers until it was agreed that some part-time, paid assistance was needed. Since then, the Friends team has grown and there are now 6 paid members of staff and 11 Trustee Directors who provide vital support. After a brand refresh in 2024, we changed our name to Wisdom Hospice Charity. 

The Wisdom Hospice is now run by the Palliative Care Services of the Medway Community Healthcare.
