Our mission is to make ageing a more enjoyable and rewarding experience for all involved and our care professionals have a huge role to play in making it happen.

Care is amazing. Great quality care can transform a moment, a day, even a relationship. That's why we believe care should be about making people feel understood, valued and supported. It's about enabling people to live their best life for as long as possible.

We’ll be in touch every month to make sure you’re the first to know about the how your incredible support is making a difference to local people facing dying, death and bereavement, along with some of the ways you can get involved, including opportunities to donate, volunteer, shop and fundraise.

At St Helena Hospice, we’re committed to protecting and respecting your privacy in everything we do. If you’d like to know more about what we do with your personal information, please read our privacy notice – www.sthelena.org.uk/privacy. You can update your preferences or stop communications at any time by contacting us at enquiries@sthelena.org.uk or phone fundraising on 01206 931 468.

When you make a donation to St Helena Hospice, we are charged transactional fees by other companies, including fees for processing payments made to us, looking up addresses and validating bank account details.

We are very grateful to our donors who offer to offset some of these fees with a minor addition to their total amount. This is however completely optional and we are very grateful for your support whether or not you choose to contribute to processing fees.

We are able to claim an extra 25p on every £1 on your donation amount for no extra cost to you, as long as you are a UK tax payer; have paid enough income tax or capital gains tax in that tax year; and are donating your own money. If you pay less income tax and/or capital gains tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all of your donations in that tax year it is your responsibility to pay any difference. For more information about Gift Aid, please visit https://www.gov.uk/donating-to-charity/gift-aid
