Fundraising

The support of the community is an important part of St Benedict’s Hospice, both in fundraising and volunteering. You can support your local Hospice in lots of exciting ways:

* You could volunteer to help us at our events, we’re always looking for willing hands to man stalls, marshal at events, help with event registration etc…
* You could take part in one of our many exciting events, from Ladies Lunches to Scary Walks! There’s something for everyone – see our events calendar for inspiration
* Why not organise your own event for us? From Charity nights to sponsored walks – we can help and support you in all manner of activities! We look forward to hearing from you!

We look forward to welcoming you to this years Light up a Life service today from 3 pm. 💙💛

A gentle reminder that no parking is available in the hospice grounds unless previously booked. This is to ensure visitors to our in patient unit and staff can access at all times.

Parking is available at Hopewood Park just a short walk from St Benedict's.

Thank you for your understanding, The Fundraising Team 🙌
