We are Lincolnshire's leading independent hospice, committed to providing the highest standard of medical and nursing care for patients living with life limiting illnesses.  The hospice has touched the lives of over 39,000 patients and their families since we became one of the first in the UK to open our doors in 1982.  And thanks to the generosity of the community, and the skills of our staff and volunteers, we remain at the national forefront of personalised and high quality patient care ever since.

We have grown into one of the country’s biggest and most successful providers of specialist healthcare and as we celebrate our 30th anniversary we will draw upon the expertise and innovation built up by our staff and volunteers over the past three decades to shape quality care over the next 30 years.

Our care is free to all and over half of the costs of £6.8 million a year rely on public donations (both money and goods for shops), fundraising and gifts in wills. Without this support we could not provide the care and support that we pride ourselves on.

We roast coffee and blend tea in our roastery in uphill Lincoln. We also have a Barista Training Centre for coffee enthusiasts and budding baristas, as well as The Blue Room which hosts music events, plays and weddings. We sell our tea, coffee and machines whole sale and provide an engineer service for the maintenance of the machines. We have three Lincoln cafés - Collection, Lawn and High Bridge, which serve food and our signature teas and coffees. We have been running since 1902. We are based at The Lawn, Union Road, Lincoln. 

The most unusual job probably belongs to Mike, our head roaster.  
We currently employ around 80 members of staff. 
We also employ baristas, chefs, waiting staff, machine engineers. We like our staff to be friendly, professional and passionate about coffee. 

"I enjoy working for Stokes because every day is different - from coffee packing to the Blue Room to the cafés, there is such a variety of things to do that you never get bored. "
