Big Give Christmas Challenge raises over £180k

Our Big Give Christmas Challenge Campaign is now over, and we are thrilled to announce that we raised £181,307, including match funding!

‍

This is a phenomenal achievement that wouldn't have been possible without all those who so generously donated over the 7-day campaign period. A special thank you to our Big Give Champion The Reed Foundation and our pledgers RadioComs, The Brampton Trust and Aspect Capital for matching the funds raised alongside the Tudor Foundation who supplied an additional £30,000 of match funding.

‍

‍

These funds are the perfect kick-starter to our ambitious plans to create an accessible 24/7 palliative care service across North London to bridge the current gap in hospice care needs. This will include extending our Inpatient admissions over weekends; increasing our community care hours to 8–8, 365 days a year and introducing a specialist nurse-manned telephone line where patients and loved ones can access support 24/7.

‍

However, we are not stopping here. We are building on this momentum and today are launching our Winter Appeal. Please give what you can so that we can be there for everyone who needs us in our community this winter and every other day of the year.
