Wishing our Mountbatten Isle of Wight staff and volunteers raising money at the Isle of Wight Festival this weekend the best of luck. Thinking of you all 🧡 #wearenotafraid

Hospices are cutting services - beds closed, community services cut back, vital hospice staff made redundant at a time when their work is needed more than ever. This can't continue. Write to your MP now and show them how much hospice care matters 👇 ow.ly/499A50SzuyQ

Remebering together Mountbatten Isle of Wight this evening All those we love who have died forever in our hearts #wearenotafraid 🧡

It's heartbreaking to see Hospiscare cut essential end-of-life services due to a £2.5m deficit amid rising costs and reduced donations. Hospices are facing the worst financial crisis in 20 years. Sustainable funding is needed now. itv.com/news/westcount…

A national charity, which represents more than 200 hospices across the UK, said the sector’s finances are in their worst state for 20 years. 5 News' Chief Correspondent Tessa Chapman visited St Raphael's Hospice in South London. Hospice UK

An incredible 6,000 of you have written to your MP to speak up for hospices as stagnant funding threatens their vital care. But we can’t stop now. We need every MP to hear about hospice care and why it matters. Please act now ⬇️ action.hospiceuk.org/write-your-mp-…

"The small and wildly variable state funding hospices receive has failed to keep pace with rising costs" - CEO Toby Porter. This comes as St Richard's Hospice faces a £1m deficit next year. UK hospices urgently require a sustainable funding solution. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Hospices are running deficits, that means one thing – more cuts, or even closures. With hundreds of new MPs in place, we need every MP to hear about hospice care so they understand the scale of the issue and why it matters. You can help us reach them 👇 ow.ly/pgOx50SJZiQ

mountbatten.org.uk/without-mountb… We cannot return to a world where the NHS ignored the dying and their families as once dead they could not come back and complain ICBs need to take responsibility to fund hospice care fairly and quickly #wearenotafraid #getyouracttogether
