“It keeps me awake at night.”

That’s what Rachel McMillan, Chief Executive of Moya Cole Hospice said about the hospice funding crisis on BBC Breakfast this morning.

This comes as our data reveals that 380 beds are out of use in English hospices, as a result of insufficient funding.

Thank you to Christopher Hinchliff MP for raising the issue of hospice funding in today’s PMQs.

His spotlight on the critical financial situation Garden House Hospice Care is facing is hugely appreciated.

Hospices are making cuts and urgent support is needed now.

As the Health Minister says, charitable giving will always matter for hospices, but they need reliable government funding to plan care.

1 in 5 ended last year over £1m in deficit and 2 in 5 are planning cuts this year.

Time is running out and hospices need fair funding now.
