Our aim being to provide the highest quality care, helping people to make every moment count.
Protect Our Care
Devastating funding cuts will close nine Inpatient Unit beds and have huge implications for local people. Find out more how you can Protect Our Care.
Costs and funding
It will cost over £14 million to run our services in 2025/2026.
Contracted services from the NHS are budgeted at £8.1 million.
With the help of our community, we need to raise a further £5.9 million through donations, fundraising activities, retail sales, The Education and Conference Centre and Bistro. If we fail to meet this target the difference will, reluctantly, have to be taken from our limited reserves.
Sustaining services for people in our community is our focus and therefore we are extremely grateful to everyone who demonstrates their dedication, commitment and generosity and helps protect our reserves for the future.
Who we care for
Arthur Rank Hospice Charity supports people in Cambridgeshire living with an advanced serious illness or other life-limiting condition and those who need end-of-life care.
Over 3,800 patients each year are cared for at the Hospice in Cambridge, the Alan Hudson Centre in Wisbech and in patients’ own homes via the Arthur Rank Community Team –Hospice at Home and The Specialist Palliative Care Home Team. This care supports people to improve their quality of life and fulfil their end of their life choices.
