Kerry Jackson OBE

@LordLtWY @stgemmashospice Thank you Ed, it’s always a pleasure to see you 💜

It was a privilege to be part of the retirement party for @StGemmasKerry CEO of @stgemmashospice. Thank you for everything you have done in the past 14 years Kerry and I wish you a long and happy retirement.

Thanks from ⁦@stgemmashospice⁩ to all the volunteers and staff who are selling our 700 Christmas trees this weekend. Janet and David ready for a busy few days! 💜🎄💜

Christmas is coming ⁦@stgemmashospice⁩! It takes the maintenance team many hours to put up the trees and tie on all the lights but it is so worth it 🎄

@Jacob_The_Pilot @DailyMirror @ChowdahHill @TheCVN69 @RAFBF @stgemmashospice Congratulations Jacob 💜💜

Just wow ! I’m on the front page of the @DailyMirror today with my beautiful new friend Florence ❤️

⁦@stgemmashospice⁩ Brilliant Blue Team had a team day today, with Zumba to end the day. Hope it went well. Thanks so much for all you do 💜💜

@julianhartley1 @NHSProviders @CareQualityComm Congratulations Julian.

@Dunkirk_1940 Well done Jacob and Andy! What an incredible achievement 💜

We are sad to announce that Sister Anne Hammersley died peacefully at the Hospice on Friday 26 July 2024, surrounded by her loved ones. Sr Anne was an integral part of the Hospice for many years. She will be dearly missed 💜

We were honoured to welcome the Anglican Bishop of Leeds, @nickbaines to St Gemma's Hospice today. He met with colleagues, patients and families, and enjoyed a stroll around the Hospice's beautiful gardens in the sunshine. Read more at st-gemma.co.uk/anglican-bisho… @LeedsCofE

End-of-life care in the UK is facing a financial crisis, warns Hospice UK CEO @tobyhporter. A new report reveals that at least 20% of hospices have already cut services or plan to. This is the worst financial state for hospices in 20 years. Watch here: itv.com/watch/news/wor…

We're offering free one-day palliative & end of life training for healthcare professionals across West Yorkshire working with individuals who are vulnerably housed or experiencing homelessness. Email LPCNcourses@st-gemma.co.uk to book your place for 6th September. @LeedsPCN

@timryley1 @stgemmashospice Thank you Tim. It’s been fantastic to be part of our health and care partnership in Leeds and WY. Not just words, but all of us trying to improve care for local people, together. I will miss it!

@stgemmashospice @StGemmasKerry So sad ( for us) to see this. You have played such a huge part in Leeds as well as taking St Gemma’s to where it is. Despite a touch of selfishness I want to wish you the very best for whatever comes next.
