MISSISSAUGA, ON, May 24, 2026 /CNW/ - Hospice Mississauga is proud to announce that construction has officially commenced on the city's first-ever dedicated Hospice Centre, located at 2176 Speakman Drive on the Trillium Health Partners (THP) Speakman Campus of Care. This long-anticipated milestone marks a powerful commitment to compassionate, community-based hospice palliative care for Mississauga residents. The new Hospice Centre, named The Welton Centre for Hospice Palliative Care, is slated to open in Winter 2027. "Hospice Mississauga has made tremendous progress toward its $28M goal and Lakeview Village is proud to help bring this vital community asset to life," said Brian Sutherland, President of Lakeview Village. "Despite current economic and market challenges, we believe it's more important than ever to invest in the long term well being of our community. Ensuring access to a full continuum of end-of-life care is essential for Mississauga residents and their families," Brian added. "We have committed $1 million in funding over the next 10 years to support the Hospice Centre. The Hospice team made it very easy for us to support in ways that aligned with our business model through a meaningful and lasting contribution to our community," added Sutherland. The Hospice Centre will offer 12 specialized care suites in a home-like setting, supported by wraparound programs for patients and families. It will also serve as the hub for Hospice Mississauga's community programs, which support more than 7,500 individuals annually through counselling, wellness, children and youth grief support, and caregiver services. "This is a generational achievement made possible by extraordinary community generosity and strong partnerships," said Kitrina Fex, CEO, Hospice Mississauga. "The support of partners like Lakeview Village will enhance access to a place where people can be cared for with comfort and dignity, and where families are supported with compassion and confidence in the care journey." "This is the time to join the moment and step forward. Give the Hospice team a call and together find a way to contribute in a meaningful way to this vital and important moment in our communities history." —Brian Sutherland, President, Lakeview Village Backed by the City.
