The North London Hospice (NLH) is a charity offering hospice care to patients with life-limiting illnesses. It was founded in 1984 in response to the lack of aftercare for patients being discharged from hospital in north London following the closure of St. Columbus Hospital in 1981 which had been north London's only long-stay hospital. The north London Hospice was the United Kingdom's first multi-faith hospice.[1] It operates centres in Finchley and Enfield.

NLH started a community service in 1984 and the first hospice facility was opened in 1992.
