Trusts and Foundations

The support and partnership we receive from Trusts and Foundations is truly transformative. Together we make sure that more people receive care, compassion and comfort at the end of their lives.

Grants from charitable Trusts and Foundations are integral to our charity. They help us to keep our core services running and they enable us to champion new projects and reach more people. In short, they mean that we can keep doing what we do best - providing quality, individual and holistic care to those in need.

Whether you choose to give an unrestricted grant or prefer your funds to be directed to a particular capital item or element of our work, we ensure that all gifts received have maximum impact.

Thanks to recent grants, our beneficiaries have been able to:

  • Receive specialist support through the difficult period following diagnosis
  • Rely on our 24-hour Advice Line whenever they need support or a listening ear
  • Depend on a trusted advocate when dealing with other healthcare providers
  • Learn how to manage their symptoms and live well with their condition
  • Feel empowered to take up new hobbies and make new friends
  • Spend their final days in the place they choose with the people they love 
  • Benefit from bereavement therapy following the loss of a loved one

What we offer

We know that all Trusts and Foundations have different preferences and that for many, capacity can be a real challenge. You will receive personalised support from our Trusts and Foundations Officer who will work with you in a way that suits you.

We will always work to align applications to your priorities and keep you updated on the impact of your grant - with a focus on the tangible change it has made to our service users.

We always welcome visits from Trusts and Foundations, whether known to us or not. We feel that the best way to get a sense of the change we are making is by visiting the Hospice itself and speaking to our clinical teams.
