Make a difference every month, without lifting a finger.💙

When someone in our community is living with a life-limiting illness, being able to rely on care and support matters. By donating through Payroll Giving (also known as Give As You Earn or Workplace Giving), you can support Blythe House Hospice with a regular gift taken straight from your salary before tax, providing us with a regular income, and budget for the future. Even small monthly donations help provide comfort, dignity and reassurance to people with a life-limiting illness, and those who love them.

The value of your monthly gift could be huge - we received this feedback from a patients' loved one after they were supported by our Hospice at Home and Roaming Car services: 'Thank you all for the care and support that you gave to my husband, to myself and our sons in the final weeks of [my husband’s] life. Your patience and flexibility helped us enormously and knowing we could call for support during the nights made it possible for us to keep him at home.'

Payroll Giving is a simple way to stand alongside local families through some of their most difficult moments. Want to know more? Contact Emily Passey, our Corporate Fundraiser:

Today we recognise World Cancer Day and the people we support who are affected by cancer. 💙

Every person in our care is more than their diagnosis, more than a statistic. At Blythe House Hospice, we provide personalised, compassionate care for adults in North Derbyshire living with life-limiting illnesses, and their loved ones, putting each person’s needs at the heart of everything we do.

This year’s theme 'United by Unique' reminds us that everyone’s story matters, and that no one should face illness alone. If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer, or any life-limiting illness, we are here to support you. Please don't be afraid to pick up the phone and call our friendly team on: 01298 875 080, or visit: blythehousehospice.org.uk/our-services

February is LGBT+ History Month.🏳️‍🌈

At Blythe House Hospice, we care for people at some of the most important and personal moments in their lives. Feeling safe, respected and able to be yourself matters, especially at the end of life.

This month is an opportunity to recognise the history and experiences of LGBT+ people, and to reaffirm our commitment to providing compassionate, inclusive care for everyone, whatever their identity, relationships or family.

We are proud to have achieved Derbyshire LGBT+ Rainbow Accreditation, and we continue to listen and learn, to ensure that everyone who comes to Blythe House feels welcomed and supported.💙

I attended their presentation evening to find out more and was so excited I signed up the next day!'

At Blythe House Hospice, we provide specialist care and support for people living with all types of life-limiting illness, including cancer. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women globally, and prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men - which is why accessible, local support matters so much.💙

Alongside our wider hospice services, we offer monthly groups that provide a safe, welcoming space to connect with others who understand, share experiences, and access specialist support:

🎀 Breast Friends on the second Wednesday of every month from 6 to 8pm
🔵 High Peak Prostate Cancer Support Group on the last Tuesday of every month from 5pm – 7pm

Whether you’re living with a diagnosis or supporting someone you love, you don’t have to face it alone. Find out more by visiting our website or call 01298 875 080 - we’re here to help.

Thanks to your incredible support, you raised an amazing £17,452 by buying our Christmas cards.💙

By taking the time to write and send cards to loved ones during the festive period, you've helped support local hospice care when it’s needed most. This amazing total will help fund two weeks of our Roaming Car service, providing urgent care to patients in their own homes, including expert support for painful or worrying symptoms, alongside comfort, reassurance and practical advice for family members.

We’re incredibly grateful to the local businesses who sold our Christmas cards on our behalf, helping us reach even more people in our community, including Gingers Fairfield Halls Mica Hardware Hope Chest Deli Ostello Lounge Sacro Lounge The Wild Kettle Cafe - thank you! 💌

We’re delighted to be working in partnership with Vikki Shipp, a local supporter and Utility Warehouse Partner, to offer a simple way for you to save money while supporting Blythe House Hospice. 💙

It’s an easy, no-obligation way to reduce your household bills and help us continue caring for patients and families across our community.

If you’d like Vikki to take a look at your bills or find out more, you can contact her directly by phone or What’s App on: 07875 297 134.

Following recent discussion across the UK, it’s encouraging to see awareness being raised locally about the impact unsaleable donations can have on charity shops. 💙

A huge thank you to Matthew Barlow from BBC Derby for helping to highlight this important issue. Marie Brown, our Senior Retail Manager, has featured in an article on the BBC News website and also spoke on BBC Radio Derby yesterday, helping to share the reality of what our teams face day to day.

Items (that have been donated to us recently) such as dirty baby bottle sterilisers, broken plates, limescale-covered kettles and mouldy sun loungers sadly cannot be sold, and cost us time and money to dispose of.

Your good-quality, pre-loved items have the power to fund vital hospice care in our community. When donating, please think: would I buy this? And please only donate when our shops are open to avoid your kind donations being damaged by bad weather. Thank you so much for your support! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgezx4ljpxzo
