Funding

Most people are surprised to learn that Teesside Hospice’s annual running costs are in excess of £2.2 million. We receive in the region of one third of these costs from the local NHS and must therefore raise approximately £4,400 each and every day of the year from our own resources, most of which is generated by the activities of our Trading Company.

Each year Teesside Hospice produces an Annual Report detailing the organisations accounts and statistics.

The Annual Review gives an overview of what Teesside Hospice has achieved financially, including income and expenditure, progress in each of our service areas and information about how our Trading Company has performed.
