Dear PM…

Help us to show our Prime Minister why we need fairer funding for hospices

Every day, Wigan & Leigh Hospice provides expert palliative and end-of-life care to local people living with life-limiting illnesses, helping them to live well for as long as possible and make the most of precious time with the people they love.

Like hospices across the UK, we are facing increasing financial pressures. While hospice care is an essential part of our health and care system, NHS funding covers only a proportion of the true cost of delivering our services.

It is only thanks to the generosity of our supporters – through donations, fundraising, playing our lottery and shopping in our charity shops – that we can continue to provide outstanding care for people across our borough.

We need your help to show our Prime Minister what hospice care means to local families. By sharing your own experience or message of support, you can help us demonstrate the vital difference hospices make and why fairer, more sustainable funding is so important.

Until fairer funding is available, we rely on your support. Help us to tell the Prime Minister what a difference hospices make.

Please make a donation today and add your message calling for fairer funding for hospices. Together, we can help secure the sustainable future that hospice care deserves, so every family can continue to access the compassionate care they need, when they need it most.
