1/4 This has been the cliff edge we have as charities lived for such a long time. The commissioning environment both reliant & yet dismissive of Charity delivery & costs. The wrangles I have had with funders over the years about funding services properly theguardian.com/society/2023/n…

Charities ‘near insolvency’ after subsidising public sector contracts - well done NCVO & Sarah Elliott (Vibert) for highlighting the huge challenges created for charities (including hospices) by falling value of their Government grants and contracts theguardian.com/society/2023/n…

We've been warning for over a year about the impact that insufficient funding will have on essential hospice services. For Hospiscare and many others, it's getting critical. Now is the time to strengthen, not risk hospice care.

“But if therapy isn’t merely about receiving advice, it also isn’t about unconditional support. Its purpose is to challenge you more so than to teach you. Consider therapy as finding yourself in the middle of a hall of mirrors, surrounded by your reflections with nowhere to hide”

We have 3 roles available in our Hospice's kitchen team: Cook, Catering Assistant & Casual Cook. A friendly approachable manner is essential 😃stfrancis.org.uk/work-with-us/c… #cook #jobopportunity #berkhamsted

Pleased to visit “Owned” - the huge ⁦The Hospice of St Francis⁩ shop in Amersham…more like a luxury department store…! Saying thank you to some of the volunteers during #Volunteersweek. They are the backbone of charities who all need thanking. ⁦The King's Award⁩

Thank you Amanda Pritchard who said 1% of our population in the last year of life account for 1/3rd of all hospital bed days Funding Hospice care for 10% of those bed days would free up three whole hospitals that could help tackle NHS waiting lists Hospices are ready Hospice UK
