This tour is a unique opportunity to explore the award-winning Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice. Completed in 2018 and designed by the internationally renowned Ryder Architecture, this £21 million innovative and warm space, puts patients and their families at the heart of the building. Inspired by the pioneering Scandinavian model of Sengetun, which links the quality and aesthetic of the architectural environment with patient wellbeing.

Set within lush gardens within Bellahouston Park, the Hospice building offers patients, and their families care in a place that looks and feels like home. The tour of the building will give you a behind-the-scenes look at how care is provided in this groundbreaking building and grounds.

You will learn about the history of Glasgow’s Hospice, explore areas of the building you may not have seen before and hear about how we care for patients and their families across the south of Glasgow.

You can also visit the Bagracree Café, which is open to the public all year round to sample wonderful bistro-style food and drink.
