Hospice UK

Hospice UK are the national champion for more than 200 hospices. They fight to ensure hospice care is there for everyone, from every background, and support hospices so they can thrive - today and into the future.

Meet Sam and Rob

Meet Sam and Rob
Sam, Rob and their five children were the vision of a happy, contented family life. That all changed when Rob, aged just 33, received a terminal diagnosis of motor neurone disease, turning their world upside down.

Support from their local hospice

Support from their local hospice
Their local hospice became their 'lifeline', offering expert care and space for the family to create lasting memories, like this 'Memories of Dad' vase. As Rob’s condition worsened, the hospice ensured care and dignity until the end of his life.

Secure the future of Hospices

Secure the future of Hospices
Hospice UK wants hospice care to be available to all. Hospices are sanctuaries that ease the pain of dying. Staffed by specialists, they help families focus on living until the end. Your donation to Hospice UK will help secure the future of hospices.
