St Luke’s Cheshire Hospice – Captains Charity 2024

St Luke's supports people who have been diagnosed with a life limiting illness. The St Luke’s nurses provide
care and support to help them live the best life they can.

St Luke's provides a truly local service caring for a population of approximately 300,000 people living in
south and mid Cheshire. Last year they had over 1,000 patient referrals to their clinical services.

Being a charity means that raising money is extremely important. St Luke’s receive limited support from
the government which means 84% of costs need to be raised through donations and fundraising.

They are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, offering the below services and more….

* Complementary and Creative Therapies

* Carer and Specialist group therapies e.g. Mindfulness etc.

New Services
* Workshops to support carers of people with dementia.
* Weekly drop-in sessions for carers, which have proved very popular.

St Luke’s also have a strong connection with The Christie, who use their facilities two days a week to deliver vital chemotherapy treatment to patients who are referred to their service.

Visitors are welcome any time, and because animals are a big part of many families, they are welcome too!

All of this is provided completely free of charge because St Lukes is a charity.

Every penny you help raise will enable St Luke’s supported patients and families to achieve the best possible quality of life.
