Our purpose and values
Our purpose at Rennie Grove Peace is to help people in Herts and Bucks with life-limiting illness live the best quality life and have the choice to die at home.
Our purpose
- Rennie Grove Peace provides palliative, end-of-life advice, support, education and a wide range of services to those people who are registered with a West Herts or Buckinghamshire GP practice.
- Rennie Grove Peace is a specialist palliative care provider whose services are delivered by a multi-disciplinary team of Nurses, Doctors, Allied Health Professionals, therapists, support staff and volunteers who will ensure the right service is delivered by the right person at the right time.
- Professional and self-referrals are received for those patients and those who care for them, including the Health and/or Social care workforce.

“I’ve done about 8 weeks so far and I’ve found it very beneficial. We do different things each week – sometimes chair-based exercise, or standing exercise, some weeks we use equipment such as balls and other times we try specific types of exercise, such as tai chi."
