Our Key People

The Sunshine Coast Community Hospice cannot operate without people, we have a variety of qualified personnel and volunteers who ensure that we run in a professional and enthusiastic manner.   Over the next Few Weeks We will endeavour to list all these people for you, so if you are wanting to assist your contact someone in particular you know who you are looking for :)


The Board:

A dedicated, determined and focused Board of Directors for the Sunshine Coast Community Hospice including Sandra Machin, Sue Mason-Baker and Stewart Wood are all working together to support all the wonderful people and other businesses involved with this community charity.  We introduce you now to this incredibly hard working group.  Please visit our Board Page for further information...

Operations & Administration:

We have a number of people who make sure we run smoothly, too many to name, though there are some key figures you may like to know more about and that information can be found on our Operations & Administration Page...

Katie Rose Cottage:

Our Hospice requires quite a number of fully qualified staff and volunteers to ensure that we professionally attend to our clients in the manner they deserve.  They range from experienced Health Services staff and Counselors to volunteers, visit the Katie Rose Cottage page to see what is achieved...

Fundraising:

This is of course a very important area of the Hospice activities, without which we could not operate and expand.  Some very dedicated people spend hours in time and energy to ensure our operations continue without missing a beat.  Visit the Fundraising page for more information...

Volunteers:

Volunteers are the lifeblood of our Charity, without which we would not exist.  Our Volunteers work in a variety of capacities ranging from cooking & cleaning to gardening, administration to manning booths, you name it, our volunteers do it.  If you would like to know more about our caring helpers, please visit the Volunteering page...

Charity Shops & Boutiques:

We currently have three retail outlooks, Mapleton, Tewantin and Maroochydore, stocking a variety of items, managed and run by some very wonderful people.  Visit our Charity Shops page to find out more...


Unfortunately our website is also looked after by two volunteers and this means it can often take time to get all the information we would really like onsite here for you.  This area will be filled out more over the next few months, though in the meantime, if you are looking for a particular area or person at the Hospice, please just contact us.
