Corporate Fundraising and Partners
St. Vincent’s Hospice provides specialist care for those living with life limiting illnesses. Our services are available to all, completely free of charge, thanks to the generosity of our local communities. It costs £6,000 per day to run our Hospice and Community Services, over 50% of which comes from voluntary donations.
Corporate Social Responsibility is increasingly important in today’s world of business and a meaningful corporate charity partnership can bring many mutually beneficial opportunities for your company and for St. Vincent’s Hospice. When you choose St. Vincent’s, our Fundraising Team will work with you to meet the needs of your company - whether it be to offer relevant employee development opportunities, challenge your staff to participate in a fundraising team builder, or work closely with your company to maximise positive media coverage. We can provide regular updates to your employees and customers (and our supporters) so that they are confident that the money raised is being used to care and support patients and their families.
