Supporting the Hospice

Our Shops

Every item generously bought in one of our shops contributes to raising around £2million towards the £8million it costs to run the Hospice each year.

Donations of all shapes and sizes can be made at our Donations Centre on Terminus Road, with furniture collections from your home also possible. With 12 shops around West Sussex and our eBay store online, making a contribution to St Wilfrid’s could not be easier than bagging yourself a bargain.

Sharing your story

Opt-out choice

You can choose to opt out of sharing your confidential patient information for purposes of clinical audit and anonymised national data collection.

Choosing to opt out will not affect your care or treatment and you can also still consent to take part in specific research projects.

There may still be times when your information will be used: for example, during an epidemic where there might be a risk to you or to other people’s health or the occurrence of a notifiable disease – we share personal confidential data with NHS and other bodies when required by law.

If you do not want your confidential information to be used for research or planning, you can opt out securely online or through a telephone service.

We strive to help every patient and their loved ones to make the most of every day and could not provide this care without the generosity of people like you!

The vast majority of our costs need to be met from our local community and other voluntary sources and we are indebted to all those who make a donation, take part in a fundraising event, or remember the Hospice in their will.

If you or your loved ones would like to support St Wilfrid’s Hospice, we would very much appreciate it. Your help will enable us to continue to work with and care for other patients in similar circumstances in the future. For further information, please ask to speak to any member of staff or volunteer. Alternatively, cheques made payable to St Wilfrid’s Hospice can be sent into the Hospice. If you are UK taxpayer, we can provide you with a gift aid declaration form; we can claim 25% more on your gift from the government at no cost to you!

It is helpful for us to let the people in our community know about our work and we are always interested in hearing your story, particularly how we may have helped you and your loved ones.

If you would like to share your story about the care you are receiving at the Hospice so that we can use it to tell others what we do and the impact of our care and support has for the local community, please let a member of staff know.
