St Christopher’s announces new partnership with Barratt London
St Christopher’s Hospice has launched a new partnership with Barratt London, beginning with a £1,500 donation to support its care in the community, across south London.
The new partnership and £1,500 donation will support the charity’s specialist palliative and end‑of‑life care for people within the community. The charity provides specialist palliative care and high‑quality end‑of‑life support to local people and their families.
Founded in 1967 by Dame Cicely Saunders and recognised as the world’s first modern hospice, St Christopher’s now supports more than 7,500 people each year across Bromley, Croydon, Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark.
While the hospice provides care for inpatients, the majority of its work takes place directly within the local community.
As are a charity, St Christopher’s provide care and services free of charge. Though partially funded by the NHS, the majority of running costs are very generously met by public donations. Each year, we need to raise over £16million.
Tom Abbott, Director of Income Generation and Communications at St Christopher’s Hospice, said: “We are extremely grateful to Barratt London for their £1,500 contribution.
“This funding directly supports our work with people in the community who are facing the most challenging moments of their lives. As a charity, we rely on the generosity of organisations like Barratt London to sustain and grow our services, and their support demonstrates a meaningful commitment to local people and high‑quality end‑of‑life care.
“We look forward to building on this partnership and working together to support even more people.”
Yolanda Jacob-Foster, Director of Sales and Marketing at Barratt London, said: “St Christopher’s Hospice plays a vital role in the community, delivering specialist care and support to people and families across south London. We are proud to support an organisation with such a strong legacy and meaningful impact in the areas where we build.”
