Value proposition

Birmingham Hospice help people from all communities access the care of their choice at the end of life.

Birmingham Hospice is the new name for Birmingham St Mary’s Hospice and John Taylor Hospice.

Our vision is a future where everyone with a life-limiting illness will live and die with dignity and in comfort.

Offering personalised support at home, in local communities or at the hospice, we help people across Birmingham to live well with their illness, right up to the very end of life. Our charity supports families and carers too, throughout a person’s illness and, after their loved one has died, with bereavement support for as long as necessary.

Birmingham Hospice is committed to training health and social care professionals, GPs, nurses and medical students in palliative care and end of life, via seminars, courses and placements.

All of our services are free of charge to everyone that uses them, including patients, family members, carers and loved ones.

Birmingham Hospice needs to raise more than £15 million each year to fund its vital care; 60% of this comes from the NHS, the remaining 40% has to be raised through voluntary donations.
