How your collection will help

Everyone deserves comfort and peace at the end of life. But every five minutes, someone dies without the care and support they need. And demand for care is rising.

Your collection helps us make sure that we can be there for more people at the end of their lives, in their homes and in hospices.

  • £17 could help fund a support line call or webchat, meaning someone in need can receive practical information and emotional support.
  • £23 could help fund an hour of expert care and emotional support for someone living with a terminal illness, in the comfort of their own home.
  • £120 could help fund heating in a hospice for a day.
  • £207 could help fund nine hours of overnight nursing care in someone's home.
