The services we provide at Queenscourt Hospice are all free to those who need them. A big ‘thank you’ to everyone who helps us in any way, big or small.
Queenscourt Hospice is an independent charity committed to helping patients, and their families, to live with their illness, at whatever stage, and doing our best to improve their quality of life, either at home or in the hospice. To continue to provide these services we need to raise over £2 million pounds each year - this is only made possible by the kindness and generosity of the people who support our work. If you are interested in supporting the work of Queenscourt there are many different ways in which you can become involved. These include joining our weekly lottery, organising your own fundraising event or supporting an event organised by the hospice, becoming a regular donor, donating unwanted clothes or bric a brac to our charity shops or volunteering to help with our events or in one of our charity shops. We can’t do it without you. If you are interested in becoming involved then please contact the fundraising team on fundraising@queenscourt.org.uk.

Lights of Love 2025 ✨
This winter, the trees outside our Hospice will once again sparkle with our Lights of Love, each one a heartfelt tribute to those we hold dear.
You can dedicate a light in memory of a loved one through our online Lights of Love Appeal, adding a special message or photo to our virtual Christmas Tree. It’s a beautiful way to celebrate their life and share your love this festive season. 🌟
Every dedication helps Queenscourt Hospice continue providing outstanding care and support to over 2,000 patients and their families each year.
We’re now recruiting a Finance Trustee. could this be you? ⭐
At Queenscourt, our Trustees are far more than names on a board. They are committed individuals who help guide our charity, support our leadership team, and ensure we can continue caring for patients and families across Southport, Formby, and West Lancashire.
As a Finance Trustee, you’ll play a vital role in providing financial oversight, asking the right questions, and helping us plan sustainably for the future. Your expertise will help ensure that can continue delivering exceptional specialist palliative care to those who need it most.
We’re particularly keen to hear from people with finance, accounting, or financial governance experience, but you don’t need prior trustee experience – just the passion and skills to make a difference.

Queenscourt Hospice is a local charity with a big reach, caring for over 1800 patients each year. We provide support at each new stage for patients with life-limiting illnesses, their families and carers, and #teamqueenscourt is committed to providing the best quality of life possible for those we care for.
The majority of our patients are cared for in their own homes. Our services include:
Queenscourt Connect, which encompasses Day Therapy and Outpatient Services, and enables patients to access a tailor-made plan of care.
Queenscourt at Home, provides additional support in a patient's own home, often at very short notice, for people, who are seriously ill or approaching the end of their life and who want to be cared for at home.
Queenscourt Outside, which has developed a programme of volunteer “befriending” support for patients who often just need a friendly face and someone to talk to during their illness.
The services we provide at Queenscourt are all free to those who need them, and it is only through the kindness and generosity of the people who support our work, that we are able to Keep Queenscourt in Service.
There are many ways in which you can help to Keep Queenscourt in Service, for example by, joining our weekly lottery, supporting an event organised by the hospice, making a one-off donation, becoming a regular donor, donating unwanted clothes, bric-a-brac or small electrical items to our charity shops or by becoming a volunteer.
