Did you know that today marks the end of the Hospice UK ?
Hospice care is essential, letting people focus on living, right until the end. But too many people miss out. The amount of government funding varies from hospice to hospice, so the amount they receive can be left to the luck of the draw. We believe that everyone deserves high-quality hospice care, whoever they are, and wherever they live.
At St Wilfrid’s, only 17% of our £10.5 million annual running costs is funded by the government, meaning the remaining 83% has to be raised through you, our incredible community.
By shopping with St Wilfrid’s and continuing to donate good-quality items for our shops, you are having a huge impact on your local community.
Thank you once again for supporting St Wilfrid’s charity shops, and making sure that we don’t leave hospice care to chance.
