School Partnerships
It’s incredibly special when a school chooses to support us.
We know that creating a space where children and young people can learn about death and grief and talk about their experiences, thoughts and worries can be so valuable. As well as supporting you to hold exciting fundraising events at school, our Child & Adolescent Bereavement Team can also visit your school and talk with pupils about the Hospice and our services.

Why we need your support
As a charity, although we work well with our local NHS teams only about 50% are costs are funded by the NHS, Every year we need to raise at least £2.1 million to keep our hospice services running. It is thanks to the generosity of our supporters that we can continue to stand alongside our vibrant Hillingdon community when they need us most.
We know how important it is for our patients, their families and loved ones receive compassionate care and support that is tailored around their needs, in the place and at the time that is right for them. Every donation helps us provide that care each day, while also enabling us to go above and beyond for people and families during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.
