Your impact this year

Every year, hospices care for more than 310,000 adults and children and provide crucial bereavement support to 60,000 families. Your support this year enabled us to keep fighting for hospice care for all who need it.

Over the past year, you have helped us fight for equal access to care, stand up for dedicated staff and volunteers, and plan for the future of hospice care. Together, we have led national campaigns for fairer funding and secured £100 million in vital support for hospices. We simply could not have achieved this without you.

Your support matters

Whether you ran a marathon, wrote to your MP, or made a donation, every single thing you did made a difference. We are profoundly grateful for your actions – big or small. 

Your belief in compassionate care allows more people across the UK to live their final days with dignity and comfort.

We know you’re as determined as we are to improve hospice care. Today, as hospices face significant financial challenges, your support is more vital than ever to protect this essential care. 

You make what we do possible, fighting on behalf of the UK's hospices - and we're so grateful for your support.
