About Us
Sue Ryder supports people through the most difficult times of their lives. Whether that’s a terminal illness, the loss of a loved one or a neurological condition – we’re there when it matters. For over 65 years our doctors, nurses and carers have given people the compassion and expert care they need to help them live the best life they possibly can. We take the time to understand what’s important to people and give them choice and control over their care. For some this may mean specialist care in one of our centres, whilst others might need support in their own home.

• We provide 2.2 million hours of palliative, neurological and bereavement support to thousands of people every year.
• It will cost us £48m to run our healthcare services in 2019–20.
• We expect to receive £30.4m in statutory funding so we will need to raise £17.3m.
• Just over a quarter of our total income comes from the NHS. NHS funding covers around 43% of our hospice running costs on average, so we rely on fundraising and earned income from our shops to raise the remainder.
• 80p in every £1 spent goes towards our patient care.
• We have around 1,000 doctors and nurses help us to provide our palliative, neurological and bereavement support across the country.
• We provide 850,000 hours of care through our hospices to thousands of families every year.
