Highland Hospice Supporting people at the end of life and their families all across the Highlands Please support your Highland Hospice.
(274)

As the only hospice serving adults across the Highlands, our palliative and end of life care services have been a vital source of comfort and support for our patients, their families and our communities since 1987. Our care increases quality of life by reducing pain and suffering, enabling our patients and their families to make the most of the precious time they have left together. Our rehabilitation and wellbeing team offers an extensive, tailored service to meet the unique and varying needs of those with progressive, life-shortening conditions. As an independent charity, we rely on our communities both for their fundraising efforts and to help us extend our support outwith the Hospice building in Inverness. Working together, we provide home care in a number of locations, allowing people to live at home for longer; our befriending team tackles the loneliness and isolation which often accompanies deteriorating health and is exacerbated in rural and remote areas; and our social work and bereavement services help children and adults to deal with the complexities of their feelings both during their loved one’s illness and following their death. Our services are offered freely to everyone who needs them but they are also costly to deliver. We’re hugely grateful to receive an annual grant from the NHS, but we must still raise more than 75% of our income, mostly through fundraising and retail, to continue delivering our care. Our ambition at Highland Hospice is to provide everyone living with a life-shortening illness with the best possible care, enabling them to enjoy the life they have left, cherish the things that matter most to them and die with the dignity they deserve.

An important read on a challenge we see in Highland Hospice retail too. 👇

https://bit.ly/4ijWbE7

We’re incredibly grateful for all your donations, but items that are damaged, stained or simply unsellable can actually cost us money to dispose of - taking vital funds away from our services. 🌻

A good rule of thumb? If you would buy it, we would love to receive it. 💛 Read the full article to learn more about why unsellable donations are such a challenge for charity retail.

Swamped with ‘daily avalanches’ of soiled items and poor-quality fast fashion, secondhand stores are in crisis. What went wrong with people’s good intentions? And is it possible to donate more effectively?
