Birmingham Hospice is the primary provider of adult hospice care in Birmingham. We deliver expert palliative and end of life care to local people living with a terminal diagnosis - at our hospice sites, in the community and in patients' own homes. We are committed to improving the quality of life for people living with life-limiting illnesses, as well as supporting their families and loved ones. We believe that anyone with a terminal diagnosis deserves to live well and make the very most of the time that remains. We care for around 670 patients on average every day across our services. Our mission is, and always will be, to help people from all communities access the care of their choice at the end of life. We are not fully funded by the NHS or government, and we expect it to cost around £19 million to run our services this year; 42% of this must be covered through voluntary income such as fundraising activity, income from our shops and voluntary donations.

Did you know that almost over half of adults in the UK do not have a will?

By having a will, you can make sure that your property goes to your loved ones, in accordance with your wishes.

Every year, one in five patients and their families receive our care and support thanks to gifts in wills. Without people like you leaving a gift to Birmingham Hospice, we could not continue to provide our expert care.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that this year's Treecycling campaign raised over £153,000 - this means we have raised ONE MILLION POUNDS from Treecycling since we began in 2012! 🎄❤️

This fantastic milestone wouldn't be possible without our incredible supporters booking in their trees and donating, our wonderful volunteers giving up their time to collect and promote the service and very generous businesses giving up their weekends to help.

After battling the snow and ice, we are delighted that this year's campaign has resulted in our highest amount raised yet for local people living with a terminal diagnosis.

However you helped, thank you so much for your support. 💚

Got a place in the TCS 2026 London Marathon? Congratulations! 🏃‍♂️

Could you make your miles count by joining Team Brum's Hospice and helping to raise vital funds for local people living with a terminal diagnosis?

Will was part of our team for the 2025 TCS London Marathon and shared his experience of the event: “Running for the hospice was everything to me. Putting myself through my paces was a small price to pay for the tireless work the hospice team carry out each and every day for the community.

"Nothing prepares you for the atmosphere at the marathon itself; the energy and passion is electric and makes all the months of training worth it. That said, it’s knowing you are raising money for such a wonderful local charity that gives you the final push across the finish line. There’s nothing quite like it.”

By joining us with your ballot entry, you have no fundraising target. You can set your own personal target and raise as much as possible for Birmingham Hospice, so we can go the extra mile for local people living with a terminal diagnosis.

Join the team here 👉 https://bit.ly/45h9RZY and we will be in touch to welcome you to our team.
