Our vision is to create a community where everyone knows that at the end of their life they will be cared for and die where they choose to be; where loved ones have the opportunity to make the most of life together, surrounded by a community that cares and supports one another.
By donating a major gift you have the power to make an incredible impact on your community and the end of life care and bereavement support available for local people.
There are many different projects and services that may be of interest to support. Please contact Lizzi Hollis lhollis@sthelena.org.uk to discuss these opportunities further.
By funding both new projects and countless hours of our core services, grants enable us to continue providing high quality care to local people facing incurable illness and bereavement across north east Essex.
We are hugely grateful for every grant we receive and the impact that support has on our ability to continue to provide our services to our patients and families when they need us most.
Some of the trusts we have been fortunate to receive support from over the past few years include:
The Julia and Hans Rausing Trust
Charles S French Charitable Trust
The Lesley Mary Carter Charitable Trust
The Colonel JD Sherwood Charitable Trust
John Walter Wynne Charitable Foundation
This list is not exhaustive.
Your donation, large or small, can make a big difference, giving more local people dignity and choice at the end of life.
Read stories DonateWhen you make a donation to St Helena Hospice, we are charged transactional fees by other companies, including fees for processing payments made to us, looking up addresses and validating bank account details.
We are very grateful to our donors who offer to offset some of these fees with a minor addition to their total amount. This is however completely optional and we are very grateful for your support whether or not you choose to contribute to processing fees.
CloseWe are able to claim an extra 25p on every £1 on your donation amount for no extra cost to you, as long as you are a UK tax payer; have paid enough income tax or capital gains tax in that tax year; and are donating your own money. If you pay less income tax and/or capital gains tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all of your donations in that tax year it is your responsibility to pay any difference.
