It costs £6 million per year to provide all of our services to our local community however, only 13% of this is provided by the Government.
Local business and corporate engagement is vital to St Peter & St James Hospice, supporting patients with life-limiting illnesses and those close to them across Burgess Hill, Haywards Heath, Lewes, Uckfield and surrounding areas.

How can you support us?
Volunteer
Excellent for team building, we welcome corporate volunteers to our hospice and distribution centre every week. Whether pruning our gardens or sorting clothing donations, the donation of your time means a huge amount to the hospice and can be a lot of fun for your team!
Events
There are many different kinds of events your company could run or participate in. Whether hosting your own bake sale, an office party or joining a challenge event, there are lots of options.
Check out our Community Events and Challenge Events pages for more ideas.
Match Funding
Don’t forget to ask your employer if they offer a match funding scheme. Often companies offer their employees the opportunity to increase their fundraising efforts by matching all or some of the money they raise for charity.
Sponsorship
Your brand might be interested in sponsoring one of our events, paying for a day or sponsoring a room.
Gift Aid
When you make a donation to us, whether that’s a direct financial gift or a donation of items for us to sell in our charity shops, we’re able to claim back the tax that you have paid on the donation. See our Gift Aid page for more information.
