Story

As we move from Spring to Summer, we are delighted to be launching our Sunflower Memories Appeal once more. It takes a community to make a hospice and with your support, we can continue to be there for patients and their families when they need us the most together we are Saint Catherines.

To run all of our services it costs around £5 million a year, with only a third of our funding available from the NHS. We rely on the generosity of the community and our dedicated supporters to ensure we can raise the remainder around £8,000 a day and continue to provide our much-needed care.

We would be really grateful if you choose to support this years Sunflower Appeal. Kindly donate through our Just Giving page or call our fundraising department on 01723 378406 and any donation you can give will go directly towards patient care.

During this time, we will create displays of sunflowers in our shops in memory of loved ones and in recognition of your continued support, which we will show to you all throughout the appeal.

On behalf of all of us here at Saint Catherines, thank you so much for your support it is truly appreciated

This is Mark and Robina's story:

Hello

Im Mark and my wife Robina was cared for by the team at Saint Catherines before she passed away in January this year.

Robina had been battling lung cancer and spent time at the hospice last summer for pain management. She celebrated her birthday in July at Saint Catherines, with a cake baked by a member of staff, and I was able to be with her every day for four weeks.

The care Robina received was just amazing. Witnessing first-hand the care and comfort Saint Catherines provides, from the nurses to the cleaners and catering staff, it will live with me forever. I cant think of a better cause.

I wanted to give something back to say thank you for the incredible care given to Robina, so last year I set about fundraising with the support of family, friends and colleagues.

You can help Saint Catherines too by taking part in this years Sunflower Memories Appeal. All the proceeds go towards patient care and you can help ensure other families receive outstanding care, all free of charge, like we did.

Thank you so much for your support

Mark
