St Helena Hospice helps people face incurable illness and bereavement in north east Essex, supporting them, their families, friends and carers.
We also help adults and children who have been bereaved, regardless of how or where their loved one died.
We support members of our community, helping them make their own choices and live with dignity, offering people individual care and total support, regardless of their diagnosis or personal circumstances.
Our support is provided where and when it is needed, whether at home, at the Hospice or over the phone through our 24/7 advice line, SinglePoint.
St Helena Hospice is an independent charity, providing our services free of charge. Only 23% of our income comes from the NHS. That means 73% of the income needed to run St Helena is raised through the local community giving donations, buying in St Helena shops, paying for care from Radfield Home Care in support of St Helena, playing Your Hospice Lottery, and leaving gifts in Wills.
We rely heavily on the help and generosity of our fundraisers, donors and volunteers. Without them we wouldn’t be here.
