Every donation, large or small, will make a difference to our Securing Tomorrow’s Care Appeal.

You can make a donation by filling in the form at the bottom of this page.

Alternatively, you might decide to fundraise! You might like to take on a challenge or activity, or organise an event, and raise some money with your family, friends, and local community.

In order to make it easy for you to fundraise specifically for this appeal, we have created a special Just Giving page. Visit the page and click on the orange ‘Start Fundraising’ button, and you can create your own fundraising page where all donation will go directly to the appeal.

You can find lots of inspiration for fundraising on our Fundraising Hub, and don’t forget that our team is always willing to help and support you to make the most of your event or challenge. Email fundraisers@weld-hospice.org.uk or call 01305 261800.

The demand for our services continues to increase annually, with more patients and their loved ones looking to Weldmar for vital care and support. To enable us to reach as many families as possible it is important that we increase providing support through outpatient appointments. This not only reduces additional overhead costs and time on the road for our team, but allows them to provide more care each day, whether that be counselling, assessments or treatments. Our new Outpatient Suite will allow us adequate dedicated space to provide this tailored approach and meet the increased demand for our care. We have secured some funding from the government which will support this extension.

In late 2024, the UK Government announced £100M ringfenced exclusively for hospices to fund building and facility upgrades and refurbishments, which will be shared across 220+ hospices. This capital grant from the Government cannot be used to fund patient care services, and must be used for enhancing building environments only, and we are maximising this one-off opportunity to benefit our services for those who will need us in the future. The capital grant will help fund the physical building works and extension at our Inpatient Unit site, but we still need to raise funds through our supporters to turn these spaces into a warm and welcoming environment for our outpatient services.

The Government grant will help fund the physical building works, and your support will ensure that the spaces are warm and welcoming for everyone who accesses our outpatient support. From helping to fund comfortable furniture and warm furnishings for our counselling spaces, to equipment to provide complementary therapy treatments and the additional linen and towels required to meet the increased demand for these services – your support will ensure that we can continue to deliver the very best care and reach more people through our enhanced offering.

When you donate, you have the opportunity to tell us which of our outpatient services you would like your donation to fund, or if you are happy for us to use it wherever it is needed most, you can choose that option too. If you are holding a fundraising event or taking place in a sponsored challenge and wish for your money to support the appeal, please let our team know.

We are planning for the works to take place from Summer 2025 through to Spring 2026 and will provide regular updates on our website.  

No, all of our services will continue to operate during the project works. Our Inpatient Unit will continue to provide 24/7 care, our Specialist Hospice at Home team will support people in their own homes, and our existing support and holistic services will continue to be provided either in the community or in their current locations.
