Significant events

• “this year we have expanded the scope and complexity of what we are able to offer our patients and service users, and we're providing more care to patients and support to their families than ever before.”
• “In the past year we have broken new ground at the Hospice, providing some iron and blood transfusions and undertaking paracentesis for some patients, as well as performing nerve blocks for a patient with very high levels of hip pain.”
• “We successfully participated in a cluster-randomised trial of clinically assisted hydration at end of life, and we were one of five hospices nationally selected for a 6-month pilot to make the 'discussion and practice of corneal donation the norm in the hospice environment' with excellent results.”
• “On the capital side, thanks to trust & grant and major donor funding we have transformed our In-Patient Unit wet room into a spa bathroom facility enjoyed by inpatients and outpatients alike, and we have purchased three 'cuddle beds' for our IPU.”
• “At the end of 2024, there was considerable media interest in the Government announcement of special £100M funding for hospices, split between £25M in 2024/25 and £75M in 2025/26.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
