St Oswald's Hospice’s Post

Finding funding for supported living can be complex, depending on your circumstances and how much support you need. Local authorities and the NHS often provide funding for your support, with extra help available from benefits like Universal Credit, PIP, personal budgets, and even some charitable organisations. We know it can be a bit overwhelming, so why not give us a ring or pop us an email? We're always happy to talk you through it and help you find the best options. #SupportedLiving #SocialCareFunding #TrustWeCare Image caption: Confused about funding for supported living? We can help you navigate the maze of finding funding.

Your support will promote the health and wellbeing of vulnerable populations.

There’s a common myth that hospice care is fully funded by the NHS. Unfortunately that isn’t true - they mainly rely on fundraising and the generosity of the public in the local community. It currently costs around 1.6 billion a year to run UK hospices, around a third of that cost is covered by the government, but the rest is made up from donations, legacies and various fund raising activities. It’s time to increase state funding and raise awareness to ensure local hospices can continue providing essential care to our communities.
