Birmingham Hospice Birmingham Hospice helps people from all communities access the care of their choice at the end of life.
(237)

Birmingham Hospice is the new name for Birmingham St Mary’s Hospice and John Taylor Hospice. We are the primary provider of adult hospice care in Birmingham, providing expert palliative and end of life care to local people living with terminal diagnosis - at our hospice, in the community, or in
their own homes, wherever home may be. We are also here to support families, carers and loved ones through the most difficult times of their lives. All of our services are free of charge to everyone that uses them however, lack of government funding means we are struggling to keep up with spiralling costs, making it harder for us to care for everyone who needs it. This year, we estimate it could cost £20 million to run Birmingham Hospice. 60% of this comes from the NHS, the remaining 40% has to be raised through fundraising activity, income from our shops and voluntary donations. We desperately need your help to provide vital palliative and end of life care in your local community.

Charlotte was delighted to see her father’s legacy live on as part of our Bulls in the City art trail.

Charlotte and mum Katie made a special pilgrimage to the Everyman Cinema in Birmingham to see our mini-bull Diesel, which features pictures of dad Terry as part of the design.

The statue is sponsored by the Birmingham Bulls American Football team, which Terry played for.

The family were supported by Birmingham Hospice’s Community and Inpatient Teams after Terry had been diagnosed with motor neurone disease.

Charlotte, who wore her dad’s Birmingham Bulls top, said: "I was excited to see the bull because Dad had told me so many stories from his American Football days.

“I couldn't believe it when I saw his face on the statue; not just once but about four pictures of him, which was amazing.

“He would have loved it and I'm so very proud, his legacy lives on."
