Why Does It Matter?

Brampton, with a population of over 800,000 people, does not have a hospice to support end-of-life care. Kay Blair Hospice will change that, creating the city’s first 12-bed hospice residence at Countryside Drive and Bramalea Road—offering 24/7 inclusive care in a peaceful, home-like setting at no cost.

Every step in Hike for Hospice brings us closer to giving local families the comfort, dignity, and support they deserve.
