Greenwich & Bexley Community Hospice is a registered charity that provides free specialist end of life care to approximately 2,500 adults with life-limiting illnesses living in the London Boroughs of Greenwich and Bexley each year. It is the only provider of specialist palliative care in Greenwich and Bexley and for the past 20 years has championed quality and choice in end of life care. Its catchment area covers an area of approximately 40 square miles and a population of around 500,000.
The Hospice does not charge for its services, and only one third of its funding comes from the NHS, which means the Hospice has to rely on the support of local people, businesses, community groups and its network of 17 shops to raise £4million annually to continue its work.
Every year the Hospice holds a huge variety of events including Coffee Mornings, a Teddy Bears’ Picnic and a Christmas Fair to raise funds. These are all longstanding and well attended events with over 300 families visiting the Teddy Bears’ Picnic which takes place in the stunning hospice grounds. The popular Coffee Mornings are a great opportunity for supporters to get together over a nice cup of tea and some delicious homemade cake and then browse through the range of hospice and external stall holders. The Hospice is always on the lookout for external stall holders to come to our events and add variety and interest for our supporters. Our stall fees start from £20 and we ask for a donation to our raffle.
Our stallholder events for the rest of the year are as follows:
• Saturday 4th July – Summer Coffee Morning (£20 stall fee)
