Special gifts to show that you care

Gifts of care

Do you have a special occasion coming up, such as a birthday, special anniversary, wedding or are you wondering what to give someone who has?  Why not considering either requesting or giving a 'Gift of care' that will directly benefit our patients?

All the items below are essential to the vital work of Weldmar Hospicecare Trust along with all our other services. 

• £10 - A donation of £10 provides essential clinical supplies for one patient for one week in Joseph Weld Hospice
• £20 - A donation of £20 provides an aromatherapy or massage session for a patient which will help to reduce anxiety and relieve pain and sickness
• £35 - A donation of £35 provides a visit by our occupational therapist to a patient in their own homes, enabling them to retain as much independence as possible through the provision of equipment and/or rehabilitation as their condition allows.
• £50 - A donation of £50 provides a physiotherapy treatment for a patient in our Day Hospice or in-patient hospice or in their own home to help manage symptoms such as breathlessness or pain or to rebuild strength and mobility.
• £100 - A donation of £100 provides a home visit by one of our Community Specialist Nurses. They provide advice and support to patients with complex problems associated with their condition  in their own homes, helping them to cope with the difficulties associated with their illness. They also liaise with GPs and District Nurses after their visits to ensure that patients receive the best possible care.
• £350 - A donation of £350 provides a day of in-patient care for a patient at Joseph Weld Hospice. Our team of dedicated highly trained doctors and nurses care for patients at Joseph Weld Hospice 24 hours a day 365 days a year.

To acknowledge each gift we will send you a special card to give to the person holding the celebration. In addition, the donor will also be able to Gift Aid the donation - as long as they are a UK tax payer - making the gift even more valuable.

Special booklets entitled 'Gifts of care' are readily available from our Fundraising Team, together with donation envelopes. So if you are the person suggesting that your family and friends celebrate your special occasion in this way, we can supply these for you to send out to them.

They are designed especially to be suitable to enclose with invitations or just send on their own. We can even personalise the donation envelope with your name and occasion in accordance with your wishes.
