Helping hospices champion care
In September, a new long-term funding partnership was announced with Hospice UK.
Funding raised by players will support Hospice UK's work as the national champion for hospice care across the country, promoting and protecting hospice care for all.
Hospice UK represents a community of more than 200 hospices working to support those with long-term illnesses or approaching the end of their lives. The charity plays a crucial role in ensuring these hospices can continue their life-changing work, offering quality care and support to patients and their loved ones.
Catherine Bosworth, Director of Income Generation & Grants, Hospice UK, said:
The support from players of People’s Postcode Lottery is invaluable, especially during these challenging times.
"We are committed to using this funding to ensure that hospices across the UK can continue to deliver the compassionate, individualised care that patients and their families need.
"This partnership will help us achieve our goal of hospice care being available to all who need it, for now and forever.
Hospice UK received a further £500,000 raised by players in December 2024.
