Raising money for Duchess Of Kent House Charity

Charity Registration No. 1085912

Duchess of Kent House (hospice) has 16 in-patient beds, day therapy facilities (3 days a week), out-patients and a Family Support Service (bereavement), providing palliative (hospice) care for the population of west and central Berkshire. In the last 15 years over 12,000 patients have been treated and cared-for by a team of 50 (full-time equivalent) consultants, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational and speech therapists, admin & site staff, etc. This care continues after death for those relatives who wish it through the FSS. All care is provided free of charge, according to need. As with all parts of the National Health Service there is never enough money to pay for all aspects of what we technically call ‘specialist palliative care’. This is where the independent charity Duchess of Kent House Trust comes in. Since 2002, the Duchess of Kent House Trust (independent charity) has raised £1,500,000 for the unit to pay for the Family Support Service, 2 in-patient beds otherwise not available, the dietician, chaplaincy, psychologist, aromatherapist, and equipment. Please support this local charity caring for local patients and their families. Thank you very much.

Rather than spend money on Flowers for Lucy's funeral she wanted friends and family to donate the money to either Cancer Research or to the Hospice that cared for her at the end of her long illness. We have set-up this page to make donating as easy and secure as possible.

Lucy was far too beautiful to need flowers anyway.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to donate: Duchess Of Kent House Charity gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Love Peter, Amy & Tom.
