Ashgate Hospice > Monthly Giving

When time is short, every moment matters. Every day, local people turn to Ashgate Hospice for care and with the growing demand and funding challenges, people are facing their final days without the care they deserve.

At Ashgate, we believe everyone should be able to die in  comfort, with the right support around them. No one should have to wait for help. No one should face the end without kindness.

And no one should ever be left behind – not today, not tomorrow.

How your gift will help

When you choose to give monthly, you’ll be helping to give the hospice a stable, reliable income that will allow us to deliver outstanding care to patients now and into the future.

Your regular gift will help us to achieve our goals of:

  • reaching more people who urgently need our care
  • being there earlier, easing pain and worry sooner
  • continually improving the quality of our care, ensuring every person is treated with compassion, dignity and skill.

Your support means people won’t have to face the hardest moments on their own.

And, just as importantly, your monthly gift will help make sure hospice care is always there for our community. For everyone who needs us, now and in the future.

Chris and Lynne’s Story

Hospice care isn’t just about easing pain. It’s about love, connection, and the chance to hold on to the people who matter most — right to the very end.

Chris and Lynne Johnson were soulmates for more than 50 years. They’d built a life side by side, and when they both became seriously unwell, they had one final wish: to stay together.

Because of people like you — and thanks to the care of Ashgate’s incredible team — that wish came true.

Chris and Lynne were able to spend their last moments hand in hand, just as they’d lived their lives – together. Surrounded by expert nurses, doctors and care staff, their final days were filled with peace, dignity and love.
