Skydive March 2024 · 16 March 2024 ·

For 35 years, St Luke’s has been providing free of charge specialist palliative care and support for people in mid & south Cheshire living with life limiting illnesses. Our support begins from the moment someone is diagnosed, through to palliative care and then ultimately end of life care.

Story

Like many families across Cheshire our Dad, John, used St Luke’s whilst battling prostate cancer. Despite how sick he was St Luke’s gave him respite and a place to go to experience therapies and counselling. We can’t thank the staff enough for their hard work and dedication.

As part of my ‘thank you’ this year I am taking part in the St Luke’s skydive! We would appreciate donations to St Luke’s to help them continue operating and delivering the exceptional service they provide.

Since 1988, St Luke’s has been providing palliative care to local people, supporting them in ways which go beyond the scope and funding of the NHS. Last year we supported over 1,000 local people with a huge range of support from end of life care on our ward to supporting carers, and from helping children cope with grief to helping patients return to work after an illness.

We are a charity and provide all our care for free, so we rely on the generosity and commitment of our supporters to raise more than 80% of our costs.
