Connecting for our community

How we help

St Catherine’s cares for patients and families across Chorley, Preston and South Ribble who are affected by life-shortening conditions like cancer, motor neurone disease and heart failure.

Our specialised care is here to help people enjoy the best possible quality of life, to the end of life. We work with patients and their loved ones at the hospice and in their own homes to help them achieve what is important to them in the time they have.

We work creatively and collaboratively with other organisations, businesses, charities and local people to meet the needs of patients and their loved ones.

Our values are caring, compassionate and committed.

How you can help

St Catherine’s Hospice is a charity which belongs to the community. We can only care for those who need us because of the generosity and trust we are shown by supporters near and far. We value every contribution for the difference it makes.

Donate

It costs £7.7m to run St Catherine's each year. Out of this total we must raise an incredible £4.25m through the generosity of our supporters, with regular and one-off donations making a really meaningful contribution.
