Heart of Kent Hospice
Every year, we care for over 1,800 patients and their loved ones, offering not just clinical care but also emotional, spiritual and social support in the Hospice and to people who are living with a terminal illness at home or in a care home. It costs £5 million a year to provide our services but less than 20% of our funding comes from the government, so we depend on the generosity of the people of our community to give £4 million every year. When you participate in our events and fundraising activities, you are helping to ensure that we continue to give outstanding care to those who need it most. Thank you for supporting Heart of Kent Hospice.
