Hospice UK is the leading charity supporting hospice care throughout the UK. Our vision is hospice care for every person in need and our mission is to enable hospice care to transform the way society cares for the dying and those around them. Hospice care supports approximately 200,000 people with terminal and life-limiting conditions in the UK each year, with some 21,000 of those in Scotland. Hospices also have an important role in supporting families, especially in providing bereavement support.
