Government funding via the NHS Sheffield Clinical Commissioning Group covers a declining proportion of the income we need – currently just 26%.

This means that in the financial year 2016-17 we'll need to raise more than £6.3 million of £9.1 million total income required.

There’s no charge for any of our services to patients.

It costs £1,029 per hour to run St Luke’s, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Of that £1,029, we have to raise £761 ourselves.

88% of our expenditure goes on direct costs, 12% on support costs.

Because of our high profile in Sheffield and in the local media, some people assume that we’re a rich charity. We aren’t. If all our income were to cease, we could only keep going for about six months.
