The Hospice is a registered charity and we receive only a small proportion of our funding from the NHS. We rely on donations and legacies to help raise the &pound;6 million every year that is needed for our care to continue.</span></p> </span><span><span> <p>&nbsp;</p> </span></span></div> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
