Raising money for

St Ann's Hospice

Charity Registration No. 258085

St Ann’s Hospice is here to help and support people through one of the most difficult times of their lives.

Hospice care is based on the simple idea that a person who has a life-threatening illness or is dying is still very much a living person, with unique physical, emotional, social & spiritual needs. At St Ann’s Hospice, our aim is to help people maintain their dignity and maximise their quality of life. We’re not just focused on our patients either: we recognise that it’s also a difficult time for relatives, carers and friends & that they may need support too.

All of the services provided by the hospice are free of charge and around two thirds of our funding comes from donations and fundraising events – that means we have to raise £16,000 a day to provide our services.

My story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

The 10K walk is taking place on 12 June and as the name suggests starts at midnight. We are doing the walk in memory of Karen's mum, Jean Bexley (hence our name "Team JB") to raise money for this excellent charity. Jean was well cared for in the hospice for nine weeks over last Christmas and the start of this year.

St Ann's Hospice provide palliative, respite and day care for adults in the Greater Manchester area. The care is free (for the families and patients) and about two-thirds of the cost of the care comes from donations and fund-raising events. They have three sites, with 58 beds as well as providing day care and care to people in their homes.

The staff and volunteers are fantastic and they try to accommodate the patients' and families wishes. It is unbelievable to think that they need to raise over £16,000/day just to keep the doors open. Of every £1 donated 93p goes directly to the costs of the care.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: St Ann's Hospice 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.

So please sponsor us now!
