We’re changing lives across Teesside by supporting people and families who’ve been affected by a terminal illness. We help them to make the most of every day, ensuring they receive the best possible care by creating experiences and memories that last a lifetime. Everybody gets treated as an individual, whether it’s physical, mental or emotional support they need from us. We support people to stay as independent as possible, for as long as possible. At this uncertain time, we are doing everything we can to make sure our care continues and we can support people.

As you will understand, the demand for our services is incredibly high and we expect that to continue as the NHS continues to cope with Coronavirus.

Right now, our nurses are stepping forward, ready to do whatever it takes to ensure those staying with us, some of the most vulnerable people in our community, continue to receive the highest quality, compassionate care and support.

But many other parts of our hospice are changing. Following the guidance from the government we have had to cancel all fundraising events for the foreseeable future.

Whilst we can postpone our events, we can't postpone the need to deliver our care. We want to make sure people with terminal illnesses still get the care they need, so nobody dies scared and in pain.

Despite our fundraising efforts and the recent announcement from the Government, we are still estimating a huge fundraising shortfall over the next few months.

Our fundraising target is: £2000

Gross monies raised so far: £150

Supporters so far: 18
