PALLIATIVE CARE
14-bed In-Patient-Unit Hospice Center, situated in the community of Ennerdale
In our pursuit of providing holistic care to underprivileged communities, we discovered the need for an in-patient unit, making our In-patient Unit the first and only In-patient Unit in Ennerdale. Our 8 bed Hospice Centre is currently on 3 stars with APCC. Our partnerships with Community Hospitals, Private Doctors, Public Healthcare Centers enables us to serve life limiting patients with dignity and provide a place where they can be looked after should the family wish so or is not able to due to circumstances
Palliative Homebased Care & Elderly Service Center
Our professional clinical staff of caregivers visits over 180 homebased care patients on a weekly basis in Ennerdale and surrounding areas where they bathe, clean and feed our patients. Our bedridden patients get a visit and check-up from our caregivers on a daily basis while our “Service center” is dedicated to provide our mobile patients with extra mural activities to keep busy and creative. Our service center for the elderly is held at Ladies of Hope on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. All elderly are welcome

Walking with abused and abandoned women that desire a positive change in their circumstances
Counselling provided by trained professionals can make a profound impact on the lives of individuals, families and communities. This service helps people navigate difficult life situations, such as the death of a loved one, divorce, natural disasters, school stress and the loss of a job.
We provide marriage, drug, trauma, rape, and pre and post marital counselling. Our trained professionals work closely with Ennerdale schools, Law enforcement, and rehab centers in and around Ennerdale for counselling and referrals. Our counselling sessions are absolutely free to the community.
In support of abused women our 10 bed Gender Based Violence center opened during covid19, September 2020 and we ever since helped 100s of women either through our program or referring victims to other shelters. Our center has a 90% success rate with successful candidates that completed our program and is successfully integrated back into society and the work place.
CHILDRENS FEEDING SCHEME
Children Focus best with a full nutritious meal
Ladies of Hope understands that children who do not have adequate nutritious food cannot develop as they should and are at a high risk of acute malnutrition. This can lead to stunting, which affects both physical and cognitive development in malnourished children. Children who suffer from malnutrition and hunger struggle to concentrate and learn, placing them in an extremely vulnerable position and ultimately perpetuating the cycle of poverty and ill-health. Since launching this program, we served 100 and 1000s of community children. Our database indicate that we are currently are feeding 300 children from Monday to Thursday. Our Queenstown town branch that is currently only running a feeding scheme and support group, feeds over 200 children from Monday to Sonday
LADIES OF HOPE VEGGIES GARDEN
In association with ATKV & Seed2Harvest our veggie garden is our hope towards sustainability
The running cost of feeding over 300 children on a weekly basis require a tremendous amount of resources on a daily basis. We aim to provide a highly balanced meal to the community. In addition to sustain the feeding scheme we joined ATKV garden projects and Seed2Harvest. We are grateful for their donations and the joined project
