Myton Hamlet Hospice opened in 1982 to provide specialist palliative care for the people of Warwickshire and Coventry in the heart of Warwickshire, close to the town centres of Warwick and Leamington Spa, after three years of fundraising. Money from the current appeal will go towards to building and equipping a new hospice in Coventry, beside the new University Hospital at Walsgrave.
