Regular giving
A regular gift demonstrates your commitment to our mission to help local people face incurable illness and bereavement.
It is hugely valuable to us as it provides regular, predictable income allowing us to focus on our goal of being here every step of the way for everyone who needs us with confidence.
Our expert nurses are at the heart of our delivery of excellent personalised care to meet people’s physical, emotional and spiritual needs. Without them we wouldn’t be able to help our patients and families by ensuring life goes on in the face of dying, death and bereavement. You can help them to help local people by ‘Sponsoring a Nurse’.
You can also help us by setting up a direct debit, an easy way to support St Helena that means you don’t have to worry about remembering to make a donation. You have the option of giving monthly or setting up an annual payment, perhaps you might want to donate regularly on a special occasion or to remember a significant anniversary or event in your or a loved one’s life.
Become a Major Donor
A major gift from you can be truly transformative.
We reach out to members of our community, helping them make their own choices and live with dignity. We aim to provide individual care and total support to all who need it regardless of diagnosis or personal circumstances.
Sometimes though we struggle to meet demand due to the growing and ageing population in North Essex. By making a major gift you will become part of our mission to help local people face incurable illness and bereavement. You will be enabling us to plan ahead and to successfully meet the challenges the future holds.
Our supporters are integral to the work of St Helena and their generosity is invaluable. Supporters like Tricia Hamilton, who has been a loyal and generous supporter for over ten years after a family friend received care from the St Helena team. She first decided to donate a gift in 2016. She says,
‘I decided to give a large gift as I wanted to give an amount that helped St Helena to grow and make a real difference. I’ve always admired their level of care and professionalism and it was a great opportunity to become more involved and help more people.’
Your advice and support will be hugely valuable too and we will make sure we keep you actively involved and informed in all our major developments. Our current plans include:
