About Us

St Michael's Hospice

St Michael's Hospice is proud to offer choice to all our patients.  We offer palliative care in our In-Patient Unitlonger term palliative and nursing home care within St Augustine's, the option of Day Therapy and, of course, support within the patient's home through our Hospice at Home team.  The same medical team supports these areas of care, offering a flexible and seamless provision that meets individual needs of a patient and their family.

What it costs

To maintain our current level of services we need £4.5 million each year.  Approximately 21% comes from NHS grants and 19% from fees in St Augustine's.  This leaves £2.7 million to be raised from voluntary sources.  Click here to make a donation towards the work of St Michael's Hospice.
