Bury Hospice
Bury Hospice opened its doors in 1991 and have since helped thousands of people across Bury through the most difficult times in their lives with their specialist, compassionate and palliative end-of-life care.
It costs over £4.5 million a year to run their services which are all provided free of charge, only 18% of their running costs are contributed to from the NHS. Meaning the remainder needs to be generated through the support from their generous community.
With your help, Bury hospices aims to develop their services to continue meeting the needs of people living with life-limiting illnesses across Bury, and ensure excellent care is at the heart of everything they do.
How playing the Local Hospice Lottery helps Bury Hospice
Profits from the Local Hospice Lottery help towards Bury Hospice running costs and provides a regular stream of income which they can rely on receiving, each and every month. Not only does this help to provide essential care and support to families across Bury, it also enables the Hospice to plan and develop their services for the future too.

The remaining 67% was given to hospice care – an amazing total of £9,163,000.
Local Hospice Lottery will give between 60% and 80% of profits from individuals playing in support of Bury Hospice to Bury Hospice. This is expected to be at least £1,400,000 over five years from May 2025.
