Thank you for helping us to care this Christmas

Every Christmas card you buy, every event you come to, and even every tree you recycle helps us care for patients and families when they need it most. Our care is always free of charge, but we need to raise over £10m this year to keep it that way. If you’re able to give a little extra this Christmas, it would mean so much to the patients and families we look after.
