Trusts and Foundations
We are so grateful to the many Trusts and Foundations that have supported St Joseph’s Hospice’s work since 1905, and are always open to working with new funders.
Some of the many ways in which you can support us:
Help us maintain our buildings and increase the Hospice’s sustainability
Support from Trusts and Foundations has recently enabled us to completely modernise one of our two inpatient wards, St Michael’s Ward, making it brighter and more comfortable for patients and their loved ones.
You could help us replace single glazed windows in older areas of the Hospice, and replace older parts of our roof so we are better insulated and protected from the weather, as part of our ongoing Sustainability Plan.
Purchase furniture and medical equipment
Recently, funders have helped us to buy beds and furniture, including Sleeper Beds which quickly transform from chairs to beds to enable our patients’ visitors to stay overnight in their room.
You could support us to purchase a range of items including syringe drivers and TENS machines which can help manage the pain of our patients.
Improve quality of life for our patients
We are grateful to Trusts who have recently paid for two Freasels, a specialist art easel that can be used from a wheelchair or bed.
You could contribute towards a watering system to help us keep the Hospice garden looking beautiful whatever the season, to provide patients and visitors with a tranquil outdoor space.
Keep our services running
The City Bridge Foundation has recently pledged funding to cover the cost of our Welfare Benefits Service though to March 2027, meaning we can support our patients and their families to maximise their income.
You could support a range of services including Dementia Wellbeing East London through which a team of staff and volunteers work to improve quality of life for people with dementia and their families.
