The Pasque Charity

I have selected the first charity that I will be fundraising for - The Pasque Charity

The Pasque Charity provides specialist palliative care for adults and children with life-limiting conditions. Their mission is to provide the best quality of life for their patients and their families as they prepare for a dignified death.

Their multi-professional approach involves medical, nursing, social, spiritual and emotional care and is provided 24 hours-a-day, every day of the year. Care is free to all regardless of race, religion or culture.

The Pasque Charity operates two hospice services - The Pasque Adult Hospice and Keech Cottage Children’s Hospice. The hospice buildings are located together within beautiful countryside just north of Luton. They also run a children’s community nursing team who work with families in their own homes.

Operating the two hospice services will cost £5 million this year. As an independent charity, they rely on the generosity of the local community to raise 75% of this figure, so please dig deep for this worthy cause.
