Give to St Helena Hospice this Christmas

If someone you loved needed St Helena Hospice, what gift would mean the most?

This festive period, you can give comfort, dignity and joy to the individuals and families being supported by St Helena Hospice at home and at the Hospice by making a donation.

Your donations

Thank you to everyone who donated during our Matched Funding Week. Together you helped raise a grand total of over £80,000! We are overwhelmed by your generosity and cannot thank you enough. 

Whilst donations to St Helena will no longer be doubled, every pound you give will still make an incredible difference to local individuals and families who rely on our care. Following the recent Budget announcements, we’re facing increased financial pressures, including rising costs and a lack of support for voluntary organisations like ours.

While we continue to lobby the Government and NHS for vital funding to sustain our services, we’re more reliant than ever on the generosity of our community to help ensure St Helena can continue to be there for the people you love.

Your support at this time ensures we can keep providing compassionate care, protecting the services we’ve built over the last 40 years. Every donation truly means the world to us and those in our care, at home and at the Hospice.


Special thanks to our matching donors

We’re deeply grateful to the three families and one company who pledged to match your donations during our matched funding week.  

The children of Rosemary and Mark Thompson have pledged to give joy in their parents’ honour, just like volunteering with St Helena for 25 years gave Rosemary joy, and just like her husband gave too in supporting hospice care for decades to give joy to others. 

The Rev Susan Wiggins has pledged to give peace and dignity in memory of her husband Alan, because the nurses at the Hospice saw him as a human being beyond his diagnosis. 

The family of a patient who was able to remain independent and at home with support from our rehabilitation professionals and complementary therapists, has pledged to give relief and comfort by matching your donation. 

Our partners at Total Clean have pledged to give comfort to those who need it most this Christmas. Just as they’re dedicated to creating cleaner, safer and cared for environments, they’re now helping to bring peace of mind to the many individuals and families being supported this festive period and beyond.

Processing fees

When 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.

We 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. For more information about Gift Aid, please visit https://www.gov.uk/donating-to-charity/gift-aid
