Following the recent announcement of the sad closure of our Lymphoedema Service, we featured again on last night’s BBC Midlands Today.
Their visit gave us the opportunity to explain why, despite our best efforts, we were left with no option but to close this much valued local service, and to acknowledge the impact we know this decision will have on patients and their families.
Rising costs and reduced funding continue to place immense pressure on our ability to provide the level of hospice care our community deserves. While we remain in active discussions with our NHS commissioners to negotiate improved funding, we know this alone will not be enough to secure our long term sustainability.
As part of our 35th Anniversary Appeal, we are inviting our community to stand with the Mary Ann Evans Hospice so that we can continue to be here for generations to come.
Whether you choose to make an online donation, becoming a regular giver, visit one of our shops, or host a fundraising event, your support matters. Every contribution, no matter the amount, can help to ensure that compassionate, end-of-life care remains available for those who need it most. 🌻💜
