On 27 May 2025, Hospices of Hope Moldova, with the generous support of Her Excellency Fern Horine, Ambassador of the United Kingdom to the Republic of Moldova, and in collaboration with the Executive Director of Hospices of Hope Moldova, Veronica Dragnev-Sacara, and Graham Perolls, Founder of Hospices of Hope, hosted “An Evening of Hope” at the British Residence in Chișinău.
This special evening marked one year since the launch of home-based palliative care services in the municipality of Chișinău, delivered by the dedicated medical team of Hospices of Hope Moldova.
In turn, Veronica Dragnev-Sacara, Country Manager of Hospices of Hope Moldova, emphasized the essential role of the interdisciplinary team in providing holistic support to both patients and their families—through medical care, counselling, and compassion.
The event brought together high-ranking officials, diplomats, and business leaders, alongside Graham Perolls, Founder of Hospices of Hope, who expressed heartfelt thanks to all those present for their continued support throughout the past year.
