Birmingham St Mary'S Hospice

Join incredible people like Maxine and Julie and brave the shave to show people that some things and some people mean more to you than hair! www.birminghamhospice.org.uk/fundraising- ideas

Last year, we raised more than £400 at Birmingham New Street with the help of our fantastic bucketeers! Can you help us beat this total for Big Brum Bucket 2018? Just comment below if you can give a little of your time for a worthy cause - we're looking for helpers from 9am-12pm, 12pm-3pm (Friday only) & 3pm-6pm :)

Summer might be over and it might be raining but the party goes on! We can't wait to welcome hundreds of you to Cofton Park today for our Chocolate 5k Obstacle Rush :) ... www.birminghamhospice.org.uk/events

lovely staff, helped so much with my nan Christine while she was going through cancer. cant thank them enough for all the help and support they gave me and my family. highly recommended x

Would like to say thanks for looking after my Dad (Malcolm) who sadly passed away yesterday. We really appreciate your support and kindness and I will be getting involved in fundraising events in the near future. Much love to you all

When the hospice was mentioned to me and my father I had doubts because of the horrible treatment he had in hospital, however the hospice is nothing like the hospital and ward he was on. My dad wanted to pass at home but that was not possible, he wasn't getting the care he needed by home carers and I couldn't be with him all the time at home. When he came to this hospice the staff were amazing, so caring and not just to my dad but to us a family, so accomodating! Thankyou so much st Mary's hospice and all the staff, my dad passed away with dignity and care and I couldn't of asked for anything better than you all did. I didn't want to lose my dad but him being looked after so well by all the staff helped the process and made it a little easier on us! Again thank you x

What a truly remarkable place, the care and attention given to my Grandfather was superb. You not only cared about his wellbeing but that of all of us too. Although we are all heartbroken that he has passed away, the team at St.Mary's have helped us to no end. The support we've been given is amazing we couldn't have asked for more. Grandad was treated with love and respect. The work that you all do is phenomenal from the nurses to the volunteers. Honestly you have made one of the worst times in our lives that little bit more bearable. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts The Farrar family x

We can’t thank you guys enough for the compassion an care that our mom received at the Hospice. Unfortunately mom sadly passed away Aug 2017 but we will still help raise as much money as we can to help you guys care for someone else who needs your help. Very touching an emotional evening at Light up a life but we wouldn’t of missed it for the world. �����thank you. X

The people are so very caring , cleanliness, such a perfect place for my friends mothers last days ...experience was utterly and perfectly heartwarming ending . The Cole family were given a large Family room which was just outstanding in every way . Mrs Hyacinth Cole lost her battle with Cancer on the 4th Febuary Thank you so very much to all the people that made her passing peacefull and completely perfect ... 5 star

The hospice staff could not have been more caring for my nan, she enjoyed being there and in her final days we were given the family room where most of our family could stay with her. Thank you all so much for all of the care that was given to my Nan and especially for baking her a birthday cake, I know she appreciated it. (Gail - 4/09/16) �

Thank you so much for a wonderful night. This was a night my purse never stayed shut. We never knew this was on every year. So my Bestie & I will be back next year. PLEASE advertise it more put it on Facebook. We will spread the news next yr. Hope u raised lots of money. For an Amazing course love to all involved xxx

St Mary's hospice is an incredible organisation that me and my family cant thank enough for the amazing care they have given and continue to give my nan until she is put to rest. I can speak on behalf of my whole family when i say our Nan has very much enjoyed her stay, so much so that she's 'felt like she's on her holidays with 5* treatment' . The fact that anyone could make her feel that way while in so much pain, means they deserve all the recognition and support in the world. You will be seeing myself and my family at all fund raising events in the future. Thank you again

So many people have to live with their loved one having suffered in their later days. I am so grateful my partner Jackie had a good death thanks to Macmillan, great NHS care and you - we were lucky to have you. Doesn't make it easy to live without her - but easier to live with her death. And your care for us, her family and friends, and for me since has been a lifeline.

One of the kindest places I have ever dealt with, my nan passed away here and the care she received was second to none.

I always raise money where I can as they need all the support that they can get to carry on doing the amazing jobs they do.

Keep up the good work �

My grandad 'jack' was in the hospice for a few months. He loved every moment there.the staff looked after him and treated him as an individual.they went above and beyond.sadly grandad lost his fight, but till the end they treated him and his family with dignity.they respected our wishes and ensured we were looked after too. I'm so glad grandad got his wish to stay there and die there. Much love to all the staff.

JACQUIE FLEMING



This is my personal 'Thank You' to the wonderful people who make St Mary's Hospice at Home team so special. They nursed my beloved daughter, Jacquie, with dignity, respect and so much kindness in her final illness. They are Sue, Carol, Jenny, Sarah, Julie and Karen plus Sandy and Debbie. I have not put surnames in here - but they know who they are! I must add another very special 'thank you' to the dedicated District Nurses who came out to our many calls day and night. Everyone talked to us and looked at photos so they got to know our lovely girl, hugged us, let us make tea for them (!), understood and shared in our pain.

There are no words to describe what you all did for Jacquie and for us, her family, so just a heartfelt THANK YOU. We will never forget. Love from Lillian X

It was awesome!Our running team from Adient LOVED it

I cannot thank the team at St Marys Hospice enough, for the care, compassion and respect that they gave to my father and our family . You are all very special people. My father sadly lost his fight with cancer and at the end the only thing he wanted was to be taken to St Marys. My father had previously attended the day centre and couldn’t speak highly enough of the hospice . St Marys and the staff will always hold a special place in my heart . Thank you for being there when my father and our family needed you the most .

I can't put into words how grateful we are as a family to the staff at st Mary's hospice at home for there care of my father in his final few days
