Making a gift in your Will could secure the future for St Luke’s
and live on Freeview channel 276
Last year, St Luke’s helped almost 1,800 patients, their families and carers - around 6,000 people in total.
And 85 per cent of the patients St Luke’s care for are supported by the charity’s Community Team in their own home or care home.

“As an independent local charity we need to raise £9 million this year, just to continue providing the care needed to so many people in our community,” said Vicki Hoyland of the St Luke’s Community Team.
“The gifts we receive in Wills are a crucial part of our charitable funding and without them, we simply could not continue to exist as we do.
“We pride ourselves on making sure that the public’s generosity goes as far as possible and something we are extremely proud of is that 70p out of every £1 we spend, goes straight on direct care costs.

“It is a gift made now, which costs nothing in your lifetime, but can help your support to live on, not only for St Luke’s but for the people of our incredible city.”
