How am I helping St Mary’s Hospice?
St Mary’s was born from the belief that no one should face a life limiting illness on their own. . It costs over £3.5 million a year to keep our hospice running, with 17% of our funding from the NHS - the rest comes directly from our community. We simply could not exist without people like you.
Despite the difficulties of the past 18 months, St Mary‘s Hospice is still ideally positioned to meet the needs of all patients and their families across South Cumbria thanks to our dedicated team of staff and volunteers and generous supporters across the community. We were able to respond and adapt to the immediate difficulties caused by a global pandemic on our local area, and we are striving to keep making a difference when it matters most in an ever changing and challenging time. Your donation means we can continue to move forward, so please accept our thanks on behalf of all the people who will receive our care and kindness. Every penny you raise at this year’s Santa Dash will ensure we are able to keep making a difference when it matters most.
