New hospice beds will be coming to the Comox Valley.
The Comox Valley Hospice Society is receiving $125,000, which will go toward setting up two new community hospice beds.
Executive Director Terri Odeneal says there are currently four beds in the Comox Valley and there is a demand for more hospice spaces.
Odeneal says having hospice beds available provide a comfortable place for people to go in their final days.
