Lewis-Manning Hospice Care

Lewis-Manning Hospice Care is a charity, helping people with life-limiting illnesses and their families across East Dorset. The Hospice promotes acceptance, hope and peace of mind in a safe and calming environment – helping people to live well throughout their illness and beyond. They aim to ensure that local people are given access to the support they may need to help them cope with their illness and the changes it may bring.

The money raised by people taking part in the Local Hospice Lottery helps to fund these essential services and enables Lewis-Manning Hospice Care to keep caring for local families, when and where they need it most.

All of the services provided by Lewis-Manning Hospice Care are given completely free of charge and this is only made possible through the ongoing support of the local community. Lewis-Manning Hospice Care needs to raise over £7,000 every day to keep its services running.

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.
