Story

I'm heading back to Paris to run the marathon again.......this year I'm going to be running for The Princess Alice Hospice which means a lot to a dear friend of mine.

The Princess Alice Hospice is one of the largest Hospices in the U.K.The Hospice opened in 1985 and has grown to provide an extensive range of clinical expertise in specialist palliative care. The Hospice is recognised as, and has an important role in the local palliative care provision where we work in close partnership with the NHS.   To show you the difference your money could make;

£5 could pay for a ward patient’s meals for one day, many of our patients like a tipple with their meals; a little of what you like can do you the world of good!

£15 could pay for art supplies for one patient for all their time at the Day Hospice, offering a fun, social and creative outlet in volunteer led art classes.

£50 could pay for two aromatherapy or reflexology sessions, helping to relieve a patient’s pain and sickness; and to reduce anxiety in patients and their carers.

£96 is the average cost of a home visit by a Princess Alice Nurse, to provide free care.

£173 is the average cost of each social work and bereavement session delivered free of charge by one of our specially trained team. 

£185 is the average cost of an attendance by one of our Day Hospice patients, for free comprehensive medical and therapeutic care. 

£430 is the average cost of providing one day of free care to a patient on our In-patient Ward. 

Any donation would be greatly appreciated and it really does make a positive difference to people lives!!!
