Nightingale Community Hospice Trust provides help and support for Enfield residents who have been touched by cancer.
Nightingle Community Hospice Trust Enfield
For Enfield residents who have been touched by cancer
Nightingale Community Hospice Trust was formed in Enfield in 2002 by a local group of concerned individuals who felt that more could be done to support people affected by cancer in Enfield. It is run by volunteers and funded by charitable donations.
We aim to work together with existing local services to ensure that we provide comprehensive support. We are here to help patients, relatives, carers, friends or those who are affected by cancer. We hope to be able to provide you with help along the way.
Remember, you are not on your own.......
When you are facing a frightening illness it may seem that no-one can understand or help. Talk to us, we will listen, and hopefully do more, by providing advice, counselling and practical solutions to the situations you may face.
About Nightingale Hospice
The Nightingale Community Hospice Trust Enfield was launched to help residents in the borough of Enfield whose lives have been touched by cancer and who were somehow slipping through the established care system.
A research project was undertaken to identify services that were obviously needed in Enfield and those that were already being provided.
A steering group of health experts, social care workers and legal and business professionals came together with the aim of forming a new charity that would specifically meet the needs of Enfield borough residents.
Nightingale Hospice serves patients, relatives, carers, friends and those who are concerned about cancer care. We hope to be able to provide help and information to those who need it along their journey.
We aim to work together with existing services within Enfield Borough and to co-ordinate local volunteer teams so that valuable resources and support are used to best effect.
We run our services from The Lancaster Centre which is situated on Lancaster Road, a short distance from Enfield Town. Both the W8 and 191 buses run past the centre and the nearest train station is Gordon Hill.

Like most charities, we can only develop and continue our work if we continue to be supported by the community we work in.
Therefore, we need people to raise funds on our behalf. We need supporters who are able to organise events, help at events or who don’t mind what they do but just want to help.
Please contact our fundraising manager
