The only way our nurses can bring expert care to a patient's bedside is by getting there quickly, day or night. That journey is powered entirely by your kindness.

A simple gift of £20 could cover the fuel cost for a nurse to travel to up to four homes, ensuring vital medication and symptom management arrives in time.

Your donation is a direct link between a patient in need and the nurse who can help. Donate today and your donation will be doubled, meaning £20 will be £40 - fuelling eight visits to patients and their loved ones, when they need us most. https://www.thameshospice.org.uk/how-to-donate/homeforchristmas/

Our Chief Executive, Rachael de Caux, popped in to the Hospice today to share some festive cheer. She spent time with patients and their loved ones, spreading warm Christmas wishes, and took a moment to thank our incredible clinical team for their dedication and compassionate care, especially during this special season.

Wishing our community and fellow healthcare colleagues a joyful and peaceful Christmas! 🎄💚🎅🏼

Wishing our wonderful community a very merry Christmas from all of us at Thames Hospice 🎄

Thank you for your support this year. Your kindness helps us bring comfort, connection and joy to local families who rely on our care.

A message from Hospice at Home Nurse, Laura, on one of our busiest days of the year.

No one wants to spend their last Christmas in a hospital. Our Hospice at Home team works around the clock to ensure our patients stay where they are happiest: at home, surrounded by loved ones and all their familiar home comforts.🏡

But we can't do it alone. Your support ensures our team are there for patients and their families 24/7 this Christmas.

Donate today and your donation will be doubled: https://www.thameshospice.org.uk/how-to-donate/homeforchristmas/

Another wonderful gesture of kindness from our friends, the Welsh Guards. They recently received a donation of brand new toys and very generously passed them to Thames Hospice earlier this week.

These toys are already bringing comfort to children in our care who are facing the loss of a loved one this Christmas or grieving during this difficult time. A small act of kindness, offering a glimmer of hope and joy when it’s needed most.

Thank you, Welsh Guards, for making a difference. 💂💚

We were truly delighted to welcome the Thames Hospice Community Choir to our Café by the Lake this weekend 💙

Moments like these remind us that hospice care is so much more than many people realise. Filling our Café with music, voices, and shared joy brought our community together in the most beautiful and meaningful way.

It was heart-warming to see such a lovely turnout, with everyone singing along to familiar festive songs and carols.

A truly wonderful celebration of togetherness 🎶✨

While the rest of the world is focused on Christmas shopping and planning, our team is focused on delivering professional, comforting care to people who need it most.

It's not all reindeer antlers and tinsel. It’s early starts, late nights, and constantly bringing peace to families during the darkest of times. Our nurses are tired, but they are still smiling and keeping their spirits high for every patient who needs to be Home for Christmas.

The team needs your support now more than ever to continue their tireless work.

💖 Send a heartfelt thank you to our amazing team working throughout Christmas - leave a 💚 in the comments!

Remember all donations received up until 28th December are doubled - https://www.thameshospice.org.uk/how-to-donate/homeforchristmas/ - thank you.

About Thames Hospice

Thames Hospice is the local charity providing expert care for people living with life-limiting illnesses in East Berkshire and South Buckinghamshire. A vital part of our work is also supporting their families and carers.

We care for the physical, social and psychological needs of our patients, not just the condition. Our highly skilled medical team works with the patient, their family and carers, to develop a complete programme of care tailored to their individual needs.

Our services include therapy, nursing and medical care, as well as practical and emotional support in our Hospice at Windsor and in patients' homes.

It costs £8 million every year to keep our Hospice running. We rely on our community for over 50% of the funds we have to raise annually to provide our services free of charge, 365 days a year, to the people who need us.
