Thank you for choosing to support Cornwall Hospice Care. We have a range of ways to give – you can make a one-off gift, setup a regular donation or pay in sponsorship of fundraising raised.
However, you give, you’ll be helping our patients and their families who are in our care right now.

Our Light Up A Life event each December is an opportunity to join with others to remember those family and friends who are no longer with us. During the service we light candles to fill the Cathedral with light and our Books of Remembrance with your dedications will be blessed and available to view at the end of the service.

Sponsor a nurse
We’re often asked how you can make a difference in our patients’ and families’ lives. The answer is simple: set up a regular gift to Sponsor a Cornwall Hospice Care nurse.
With your support, our nurses provide peace, comfort, and calm when someone is nearing the end of their life, seven days a week, 365 days a year, in our hospices and Cornish community. Our hospice care is 100% free but funded by you. We can only reach all those who need us thanks to incredible people like you, who choose to support us, their local hospice charity, with a regular gift. You can sponsor a nurse for as little or as much as you like, enabling us to confidently plan for the future.
Festive Wishes
Join us in showing your appreciation for all our nursing staff, doctors, housekeepers, administrators, therapists, counsellors, volunteers and chefs who will be working in our hospices over the festive period.
Let our hospice teams know how much they mean to you, and give them that extra boost this Christmas, as they turn our hospice into a home from home for all those who will be with us this December.
If you are able you can also leave a donation. By doing so you will be making a huge difference to all those whose lives we touch.

What is the Gift Aid scheme?
Gift Aid is a government scheme by which charities can reclaim tax on donations from a UK taxpayer. This means your donations of money and items will be worth 25% more, so for every £1 donated, we can claim an additional 25p. There is no cost to the donor.
Example: You make a cash donation and sign up for Gift Aid with us. We can claim an extra £2.50 in Gift Aid from the government as long as you have paid £2.50 in UK tax to cover this. So your kind donation has now turned into £12.50!
You have to be a UK taxpayer to be able to Gift Aid your donation – meaning when you choose to Gift Aid, we need your full name and postal address so that the government can confirm you are eligible.
Just a few minutes of your time will help us continue funding the care we can offer to our patients and the support we provide to their families – and remember, this is at no cost to you!
