Every time you make a donation to Hospice Aid UK, you help a hospice continue to provide specialist end-of-life care and respite support – today, tomorrow, and in the weeks ahead.
With just one click or a quick phone call, you can help UK hospices provide comfort, dignity, and care to people who need your support. Whether at the end of life, during a period of respite, or following a bereavement, every donation makes a difference.
Your support helps fund urgent equipment like specialist beds, pressure-relieving mattresses, and vital medical supplies.

“Your donation means the world to me and my mother June who had dementia. She couldn’t string a sentence together, but in the last weeks of her life, she said to me, “I want you with me, Jules, I want to go home”.
Garden House Hospice made this possible. Mum came home for the last week of her life, and the house was filled with joy, music, we had friends over, we had movies on. It was a truly incredible experience and the incredible team made four visits a day.
Thank you for helping make it possible.”
Jules, Garden House Hospice Care

What Is Palliative Care? Understanding Hospice Care in the UK If someone you love has received a serious diagnosis, you might be hearing terms
When you turn each page of our 2026 hospice charity calendar, you’re not just marking another month, you’re helping hospices across the UK provide exceptional end-of-life care when families need it most.
Hospices are places where people live well with life-limiting illnesses, where families find support and respite, and where expert teams work to improve quality of life at every stage. Here’s what hospices really do.
When Kenneth Essex decided to celebrate his 101st birthday, he didn’t just blow out candles on a cake. Instead, this remarkable centenarian laced up his walking shoes and set himself a challenge: 10 kilometres in 10 days to support hospices across the UK.
“Now that we’ve had our snazzy new washing machine installed, I just wanted to say thank you once again.
Funding the unexciting essentials can be a huge challenge for hospices. We continue to be so grateful that you actively recognise this and support hospices in need. Our nurses are thrilled with the new washing machine, which is constantly in use ensuring our patients receive the highest standards of care.”
Queenscourt Hospice
