Sponsor a Nurse
Local people affected by life limiting illness truly depend on us. With your committed support we can plan ahead with confidence to give them the best future possible.

The people we support depend on us. They need to know that we will be around for as long as they need us and with your generosity we can plan ahead with confidence. Every day it costs £17,000 to meet the end of life care needs of local people living in our community. It is a lot of money, but your gift really does count. Last year 500 people with the most complex symptoms received our specialist in-patient care, and our nurses made more than 5,000 home visits. Regular giving is the most cost effective way to support our work and it allows us to plan for the future. Please sponsor a nurse today from only £3 a month and we will thank you with the following benefits.
"Knowing that Saint Francis Hospice is there to look after me today, tomorrow and for as long as I need it means so much to me and my family."
