How We Are Funded

How we are funded

At St Peter's Hospice, all our care is provided completely free of charge. That includes care at home, in our Inpatient Unit, and through our community and support services. There’s no cost to you or your family - and there never will be.

We're a local charity, and we rely on the generosity of our community to make this possible.

Only around 20% of our funding comes from the NHS. The rest is raised through our charity shops, donations and fundraising activities. Gifts in Wills are also an important source of income, paying for the care of almost one in five of all our patients.

Every gift helps us continue to provide expert, compassionate care for people facing the end of life, and for those closest to them. For information on donating, or to find out about our free Will-writing services, please contact our fundraising team on 01275 391 400 or supportercare@stpetershospice.org.
