Birmingham St Mary's Hospice Revenue and Competitors

Every day, Birmingham St Mary’s cares for 400 people living with life-limiting illness across Birmingham and Sandwell. All of our services are free of charge to everyone who uses them, including individuals, their families, loved ones and carers.\n\nWe offer a range of services in a number of locations – including at the Hospice, in people’s homes or in the local community – making end of life care more accessible for all.\n\nMost of our care is provided in people’s homes or in the local community – including at our three Satellite Clinics in Bartley Green, Druids Heath and Cape Hill. This care is delivered by our community and Hospice at Home teams, who work in conjunction with GPs, consultants and other healthcare professionals to offer specialist medical advice and emotional support. \n\nIn addition to caring in people’s homes, we also have an inpatient unit for professional end of life care and symptom management. Our day services – including our Day Hospice and Welcome Group – allow individuals to enjoy complementary therapies, as well as psychological, social and spiritual care. \n\nWe have a dedicated Family and Carer Support Team, who are on hand to support with emotional and practical matters. That might be helping to write a will or providing bereavement counselling but whatever you need, the team is there to support loved ones, families and carers. \n\nWe also champion palliative care and have a commitment to research, innovation and teaching with the aim of improving hospice care and making it available to all. \n\nWhilst free of charge to those who need them, it costs £8 million each year to run the Hospice – that’s £21,918 a day, £914 per hour, and £16 every minute. We therefore rely on the generous support of local people to help fund our vital work. There are many ways that you can get involved and support us – from signing up to an event, volunteering, making a donation or shopping at one of our 16 stores.
