Commenting Greg said:

"I was very pleased to present the motion to Parliament praising the work of Wheatfields Hospice.

For thirty years it has been a leader in its field of care. The palliative service which Wheatfields provides is very inspiring and the staff deserves recognition for their fantastic work."

It was a profound experience meeting the staff and patients at Wheatfields and I'm sure the Hospice will continue to provide an outstanding level of care for many years to come."
