Community Generosity Saves Vital Hospice Services
26 Dec, 2025
Summary
- Myton Hospices avoided 2025 cuts due to overwhelming community support.
- Record fundraising compensated for rising costs and reduced funding.
- Hospice funding increased significantly from £8m in 2015 to £15.3m in 2025.
Myton Hospices in Warwickshire has announced it will not face service cuts in 2025, a significant achievement amidst a national funding crisis affecting similar institutions. The CEO attributed this success to "unwavering support" from the local community, which led to record-breaking fundraising events. This allowed the hospice to overcome the financial challenges of increasing demand and operating costs. In 2015, the three hospices required £8m to operate, a figure that nearly doubled to £15.3m by 2025. While the NHS provided 17% of this funding, the vast majority was raised through local efforts, helping nearly 13,000 people over the past decade.
