Why Support Mary Stevens Hospice?

Hospice care might be needed by anyone at any time. The Mary Stevens Hospice has a reputation for providing high class free of charge Palliative Care services for patients and their families.

A life-threatening illness whether it is a form of cancer, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, motor neurone disease or any other progressive condition can affect anyone irrespective of job, class or age. Palliative care is the care given to people who are no longer responsive to curative treatment. The Mary Stevens Hospice provides services to those suffering from advanced cancer and other life-threatening and disabling diseases. Care is given to patients free of charge, irrespective of background, race or religion, purely on their need and our ability to help.

Some Hospice Facts...

Running the Hospice each year costs approximately £2.25 million. Occasionally people think that the Hospice is funded totally by the NHS. They are unaware that whilst Mary Stevens does receive a small amount of funding from this source (18%) the remaining source of income (82%) is raised purely from voluntary contributions. These donations are from a variety of sources including legacies, in-memoriam donations, general fundraising, events, our trading activities, and trust & grant giving bodies.
