Why philanthropy matters at Phyllis Tuckwell

Every day, it costs over £30,000 to provide our care.

But philanthropy doesn’t just sustain what exists it allows us to build, evolve and improve hospice care for the future.

From expanding services, to investing in facilities, to reaching more families at home, major gifts make things possible that simply wouldn’t happen otherwise.

Where your gift can make a difference

There are many meaningful ways to support people at the end of life, from pledging a multi-year gift to donating shares or hosting an event.

We work with each donor to align their gift with what matters most to them.

1. Patient care

Directly support specialist palliative care, in the hospice and at home, for those who need it most.

2. Families & bereavement support

Ensure families are supported not just during illness, but long after loss.

3. The new hospice & facilities

Help shape the next generation of hospice care through investment in our new hospice and future developments.

4. Innovation & future care

Fund new approaches, services and outreach that will define hospice care in the years ahead.

Why Phyllis Tuckwell

We are a local hospice, supporting local people.

This is what makes philanthropy here different.
