Did you know that donations of loose change are worth an incredible £320 million to charities?

 
You may think that a few pence in a jar won’t make much difference in providing care at Dove House, but the reality is that it makes all the difference.  Last year, collection boxes raised over £25,000 for our patients and their families, and over the years the total raised from these boxes now exceeds over £500,000 and counting. Not bad for some loose change!

We have two collection box options, so there is something for everyone!
  • Workplace Collection Boxes – for pubs, shops, other businesses, or community groups
  • Personal Collection Boxes – for individuals to keep at home

The average collection box raises between £12 and £40 for Dove House. Our care at the hospice comes in all different forms, and not all costs a lot of money, so your small change really does make a special difference.
  • A cup of tea for a worried relative may cost only a few pence for us to make, but can make a huge difference in the most difficult of times.
  • Hot, homemade, freshly prepared meals for a patient costs around £15 a day.
  • A long soak in a warm bubble bath, something lots of our patients haven't experienced for a long time, costs around £1.50.
These things may not seem a lot, but they can make a world of difference to our patients and their families.

All of our collection boxes also feature QR codes, making it easier than ever to support Dove House!
