More families than ever need our hospice care. Demand for our care is growing, with more people facing complex end-of-life needs. At the same time, funding remains limited and hospices must raise the majority of income needed to operate. Nurses—who deliver most patient care—are our greatest cost. Without sustainable funding, we risk not meeting rising demand, leaving patients and families without the expert care and support they need at the most difficult time.

We will use funds to directly support our nursing team, enabling us to deliver more hours of specialist care to patients and families. By contributing to core costs, this funding will reduce financial pressure, strengthen our sustainability and ensure we can continue to respond to rising demand. This means we can maintain expert, compassionate care and be there when people need us most—particularly in the darkest hours. This appeal will continue to raise awareness of our hospice care.
