We are a charity and this year we need to raise £12.7 million of the £15.3 million it costs to provide our services free of charge to our patients and their families. Just 17% of our funding comes from the NHS. We couldn’t do it without people like you.
By taking part in this fundraising challenge, you're helping us be there for people living with a terminal illness, and their families, when they need us most - whether that’s at Warwick or Coventry Myton Hospice, in the comfort of their own home, or through our wellbeing services.
