ST LUKE’S HOSPICE – SHEFFIELD FASCINATING FACTS

About St Luke's

Although St Luke’s cares for incurably ill people and their families, it is more about living than dying. Nearly half of the patients admitted to our ward are discharged back home after care and receive support from our specialist community nurses and / or attend on a daily basis for therapy support at the day hospices. We have patients with a wide variety of different illnesses such as cancer, heart disease, lung disease and some neurological type illnesses.

In addition to its staff, the Hospice is indebted to its army of over 500 unpaid volunteers, who perform a variety of functions both at the Hospice and at the Hospice's six charity shops.

These include nursing volunteers, flower arrangers, volunteer drivers for transport to Day Units, religious services, volunteers for the tea bar, patient kitchen, lottery volunteers, fundraisers and a host of others too numerous to mention. Even with all this help, the Hospice still needs your support to pay our way. Visit Friends of St Luke's for further information on volunteering, fundraising or making a donation.

Each year, a considerable part of our income comes from charitable bequests. In fact, we could not exist without the generosity of people who remember us in their wills. These bequests vary in size. Sometimes the legacy is in the form of an item of jewellery or antique furniture.

There are many reasons for these bequests. Some people have been patients at St Luke's, some have worked as volunteers, and some just wish to benefit their local community and may have no remaining family. All charitable requests are tax-free and may help reduce inheritance tax.
