Matthew’s House officially opened its doors in Alliston on Thursday.
The $6-million hospice is a welcome sight for people in the community.
The new facility is 30-thousand square feet and offers 10 hospice rooms, two large social areas, two kitchens and many other community and recreation rooms.
More than 1,700 people received help last year and the new Matthew’s House expects that number to grow considerably.
Kim Woodland is the hospice CEO and says they will operate groups and services out of every town in south Simcoe. But she says more volunteers are needed.
The Matthew’s House hospice will officially welcome its first guest on Monday.
