Update - Febrauary 2024

We are absolutely thrilled to let you know that we have reached our £100,000 target for our Power Up! Appeal!

We launched the Power Up! Appeal in July and hoped to raise funds to help us to weather the storms of winter to contribute towards our increased running costs, due to the rise in energy prices.

Hitting the £100,000 total is an absolutely incredible feat and all thanks to you, our community of Hospice supporters, both local and further afield!

This total is testament to the love and support which you, our community, show us, time and time again.

Thank you!

A message from St Cuthbert’s Hospice Chief Executive, Paul Marriott:

“St Cuthbert's Hospice is proud to have exceeded our goal of £100,000 thanks to the Power Up! Appeal, which is a testament to the care, support, and dedication of our local community. As a Hospice, we strive to deliver the best possible care to everyone in County Durham and the heartwarming stories featured throughout the Appeal demonstrate just that. The success of this campaign was only possible due to the collective effort of our various supporters including communities, giving organisations, corporates, staff, volunteers, and beyond. Not only will the funds raised help to cover the deficit we face due to the rise in energy costs but will help us to continue to go above and beyond. We wholeheartedly thank everyone who contributed to this cause.”

Power Up! Appeal 

Little luxuries that we take for granted every day, like popping the kettle on for a cuppa, or enjoying a warm bath, really make a difference to those in our care. We are fortunate enough to be able to provide this level of care and we hope to be able to continue to do so for the future.

Here at St Cuthbert’s Hospice, our energy bills continue to rise and we know this is a concern we all share.

We need to raise £100,000 this year to help us cover our running costs due to the increased cost of energy.

St Cuthbert’s Hospice prides itself on being a centre of excellence within our community, providing all-embracing and individualised care to all those affected by life-limiting illnesses, at a time and a place that is right for them.

To be able to continue providing our compassionate care, we must raise the funds needed to weather the storm that will inevitably reach us this winter.

We know how powerful and passionate our local community are.

With your help, we know we can reach £100,000.

Anything you could do to help us, be it making a donation or sharing our campaign with your friends, family or local politicians to help spread awareness would be greatly appreciated.

It’ll mean we won’t have to think twice about popping the kettle on when someone needs a cuppa.

About St Cuthbert’s Hospice

At St Cuthbert's Hospice we provide free support and care for families, friends and carers, bereaved adults, and children, as well as people with any life-limiting illness in County Durham.

We provide support to In-Patient and Living Well Centre guests, their families, and carers at each stage of their health journey. Whether that be our Day Services team offering a fun-filled activity-based day for our guests, to our outstanding Guest Services team who whip up a delicious afternoon tea for our In Patients to enjoy, to our Family Support Team who share much-needed specialist knowledge and resource to those who need it.

We also extend our services out into our local community, with our new Community Outreach Project launched this year, delivering support sessions in and around Chester-le-Street helping people to Live Well with Illness, with Bereavement, as a Carer and with Dementia.

This is only a snapshot of the care that we provide and it is thanks to our generous supporters, amazing teams and volunteers that we can continue to offer all-embracing and individualised care to all those affected by life-limiting illnesses, at a time and a place that is right for them.

But most importantly we laugh with, listen to, comfort, care for and help make special memories for thousands of individuals and families each year.
