Hospice Care Week

During Hospice Care Week (7-13th October 2024), hospices across the UK will come together to champion hospice care nationwide.

Let’s tell everyone how much we value the care and support given by hospices at the end of life by supporting Hospice Care Week.

This year’s theme will be all about hospice retail, and the role it plays in funding hospice services. We’ll be celebrating the brilliant contribution of our hospice shops to what we do – and highlighting to governments why they should do more.

What does hospice care cost here at St. Joseph's Hospice?

  • £7,800 nursing care for one day
  • £250 nursing cost per bed, per night shift
  • £124 a week for one patient’s meals
  • £10,000 to run the hospice in full every single day
