Arguably, the most popular weekly visitor to Weldmar Hospicecare’s Inpatient Unit is Crumble.

Crumble is a PAT (Pets as Therapy) dog, and has been visiting the hospice alongside his owner, Nicola Cumber, since 2018. They go and see patients staying at the hospice, as well as patients and bereaved relatives who are attending Wellbeing Sessions. Crumble is also rather popular with our nurses!

You can also follow Crumble on Instagram, at @crumblepatdog.
