Strathcarron Hospice

Strathcarron Hospice We're a Hospice charity providing free specialist palliative & end of life care for local people. We need to raise over £14,632 every day to keep these running.

Strathcarron Hospice is here today for and because of the people of Forth Valley, Cumbernauld and Kilsyth. Every year, we provide care and support to over 1,400 people with a life-limiting illness or condition, at a time when both they and their family need it most. Our philosophy is about living until you die and we ensure people have every opportunity to achieve their goals right up until the la

st moment. Strathcarron is an independent hospice and all of our care is provided free of charge. Our services include a 24-bed inpatient unit, Day Care, Hospice@Home, Community Nurse Specialists and Lymphoedema clinic.

One of the founders of the Strathcarron Hospice 10k is set to pull on his trainers and take part in the run once more later this year - 40 years after he set it up!

Gordon worked at Airth Castle Hotel in the leisure club in 1986 when Donald Slicer, a leisure club member and well-known local golf professional at Falkirk Tryst GC, approached him with an idea to hold a 6.2 miles ‘fun run’ fundraiser for Strathcarron.

Alongside fellow leisure club member Gordon Robinson, they approached the Hospice with the idea.

On 5 October 1986 the inaugural event was held with more than 280 runners setting off from Denny High School, raising over £5339 for the hospice.

Four decades on, founder Gordon will take part in the Strathcaron Hospice on 18 October 2026 alongside daughter Katherine and his step son’s partner Leah.

Did you know that based at Strathcarron Hospice we have a specialist Lymphoedema service where we can see people living with lymphoedema or lipoedema?

Lymphoedema happens when the lymphatic drainage system can not do it job properly.

This can be caused by a variety of factors including cancer, cancer treatments, trauma, injury, circulatory problems or genetic causes.

The result is swelling – often of the limbs but other parts of the body such as the head and neck or the trunk can be affected too.

Lipoedema is a chronic condition that causes an abnormal, build-up of fat cells often affecting the legs but sometimes the arms.

Our Lymphoedema & Lipoedema Team will be heading out into the community on Thursday 11 June as part of , so pop along for a chat if you are interested in finding out more about the condition and how our service can help:

🔵 Denny Library 10am-12noon
🔵 Falkirk Library 2-4pm
