About the Charity
We’ve been supporting people in Birmingham for a combined 158-years. Providing expert palliative and end of life care across the city and its surrounding areas, we take care of our community when they need us most.
Birmingham St Mary’s and John Taylor Hospices merged in 2021. Now unified under one name, Birmingham Hospice, we care for more people than ever before.

What is costs to run Birmingham hospice
Last year it cost nearly £17 million to run Birmingham Hospice over 12 months. Our charity is not fully funded by the NHS, meaning we rely on fundraising and voluntary income. This year, we will need to raise £6.5 million; this is a £1 million increase from last year.
Ensure we’re here for you now and in the future.

Birmingham Hospice Crisis Appeal
The rising cost of living has affected us too; with the price of energy, medicine and food rapidly mounting.
Fundraising is also becoming harder each year, as everyone struggles to make ends meet.
Providing dignity, choice, comfort and care, we support people from diagnosis, right up to the very end of life.
3 in 4 of us approaching the end of life may need to access hospice care – we want to be there when that time comes.
Consider supporting our appeal today to ensure we’re here for you now, and in the future.
