We are in a cost of living crisis and we are all feeling the pinch. When cutting back on spending, charitable donations may be something you reconsider. 


However, there are still lots of ways you can support us if you are short of cash. We've put together a few ideas that you might find useful if you are wondering how you can support.

1. Volunteer your time

If you have a bit of time on your hands, whether just a few hours or more, we would love for you to volunteer. From gardening, to assisting in our stores, we'd love to have you on the team.

2. Fundraise while you shop

Did you know you can raise money for the Hospice while you shop online, at no extra cost? Using platforms like easyfundraising, for every purchase you make, a percentage of the sale will be donated to the Hospice.

3. Donate your unwanted belongings

Banish your clutter and give it a new lease of life by donating it to our shops. Our shops raise over £1million a year selling donations given by the public and so are a vital source of income.

4. Collect used stamps

This is great for groups! Don't throw that old envelope away! Trim the stamp off, and start a collection. Once you've got a few, send them in and we can exchange for cash!

5. Join the Jam Jar Army

Save the pennies and the pounds will count for themselves! If you have lots of loose change, collect it in a Jam Jar and hand it into our shops. This is a great way to donate and get rid of all that change weighing down your pockets.
