Story

The cost-of-living crisis and increasing energy prices are affecting us all and hospices are no different. Here at Teesside Hospice, were seeing a fall in the number of donations and soaring costs, as a result we simply dont have enough money to meet the demands for our services.

We are now facing the real possibility that we may have to close our doors if help doesnt come soon!

Every 90 seconds, someone is diagnosed with cancer in the UK. This, along with increased waiting times and delays in treatments has led to an increase in demand for our care. Last year, we provided 74,495 hours of care to thousands of people.

More and more people now need our care, and we are now regularly seeing younger people with families who have complex needs accessing our services. This is in addition to the people currently receiving our end-of-life care.

We believe its a basic human right that everyone should receive good end of life care. However, with a £450,000 hole in our funding we urgently need your help to keep our doors open. With spiralling costs set to continue, we know we need a long-term solution, and are tirelessly campaigning for the government to pay a fairer price for our care but this will take time.

Its only with your support that we can keep providing urgent care for people with terminal illnesses such as cancer and motor neurone disease.

We promise that your donation will make an immediate difference. We need to raise £5,500 a day, and with your previous donations, youve helped us keep our doors open. Its only with your continuous support that we will make sure no one dies scared, alone or in pain.
