I honestly don’t know what I’d have done without the Hospice friendship, support and companionship at such a truly difficult time. These nurses are special, they have genuine compassion, and I will never forget what they did for me.

Help Fund Vital Hospice Services

Hospices across Great Britain offer essential care for those facing life-limiting conditions and their families at an incredibly challenging time. Services include specialist therapies, symptom management, emotional and financial support, respite care, and bereavement services. Whether through inpatient care, home visits, or therapies, hospices provide comfort, independence, and dignity during end-of-life care for both children and adults, completely free of charge.

How Your Lottery Entry Makes a Difference

By pooling resources, partner hospices share costs and generate sustainable income, ensuring their vital care continues now and in the future. In 2023, £13,644,000 was raised from tickets purchased by players supporting all participating hospices, with 2% spent on prizes, 12% spent on administration and management, and 19% reinvested to recruit new lottery players. The remaining 67% was given to hospice care – an amazing total of £9,163,000. The more people that play in support of them, the more each hospice receives.
