St Peter's Hospice

Charity Registration No. 269177

St Peter's Hospice is Bristol's only adult hospice caring for local people with incurable illnesses. Our commitment is to improve the quality of life of patients while extending care and support to their families and loved ones. Last year we cared for over 2,000 patients and supported over 6,000 family members, including children. 85% of this care was provided in patients homes. All of our care is provided free of charge - the NHS contributes just 25% of our annual running costs. For the rest we are totally reliant on the generosity of the public who support us through many different ways.

My story

On Sunday 4th October at 11am, St Peter's Hospice will be holding their annual 'Walk to Remember' around Ashton Court.

I've enrolled to do this with my son Samuel and I would be very grateful if you would sponsor me.

You may or may not be aware that St Peter's supported my wife Jane in the last few months of her life and in particular, her last week. My family and I were astounded with the level of care, kindness and love provided by the staff at St Peter's both in the community, the hospital and at their Brentry Hospice. We will be forever indebted to them for caring for Jane in her final days.

If you are like me, I had very little awareness of the vital role Hospices play in looking after people who are terminally ill. It's just not something you spend much time thinking about unless, sadly, you experience it in some way. St Peter's is predominantly funded by donations and every pound we raise will enable them to provide the very special care that people like Jane need.

With thanks

Darren and Samuel
