Cornwall Hospice Care is a 24/7 Cornish healthcare charity that provides end of life care and support for people with terminal illnesses. This care is provided free of charge at our two hospices – Mount Edgcumbe Hospice in St Austell and St Julia’s Hospice in Hayle, in Cornwall’s hospitals, care homes and in the community.
Our clinical staff care for patients and their families, carers and friends at Mount Edgcumbe Hospice in St Austell, St Julia’s Hospice in Hayle and through our Community Services. To help fund this care we also have 30 shops, 4 donation centres and 2 donation points, and a variety of different fundraising activities.
Our staff and volunteers are all ambassadors in our community, spreading the word about the end of life care we provide, care that’s 100% free to our patients and funded by the Cornish community.
Although our core work is as a hospice charity, we have a variety of roles in a diverse range of professions at locations across the county. You could work for us in healthcare roles in our hospices as well as jobs in our shops, distribution and warehouses, maintenance, our fundraising offices, administration, finance and media.

We’re delighted to announce that our charity is now an accredited Living Wage Employer. This means that every member of staff that work with us will earn a real Living Wage.
This is higher than the government’s minimum, or National Living Wage, and is an independently calculated hourly rate of pay that’s based on the actual cost of living. It’s calculated each year and is announced by the Living
Wage Foundation as part of Living Wage Week. The 2022/2023 rate is currently £10.90 in the UK, rising to £12.00 in 2023/2024.
We’re signed up to the Armed Forces Covenant to affirm our commitment to supporting the armed forces community. It recognises the value serving personnel, both regular and reservists, veterans and military families contribute to our charity and our country.
The Covenant is a promise by the nation ensuring that those who serve or have served in the armed forces, and their families are treated fairly. We’re delighted to be able to make this pledge to proudly support them.
