St John’s Hospice is in the community, for the community. So we love it when local organisations get involved to fundraise for us!

The tremendous support we have received from the local community is now being extended further afield, and many more people are now becoming actively involved. This support is instrumental in helping us raise the £2.1million that is needed each year to keep our vital services available to the patients and families that need us.

Over the course of the year, we support over 4,000 patients and their families. Here’s how your support helps us to care for more people:
