Why Leave Us a Gift in Your Will

adapted bed icon

It could help us buy specialised equipment
Like an adapted bed on our in-patient unit, for someone who needs ongoing medical support.

It could pay for a vital service
For example, it could enable one of our Night Nurses to offer overnight nursing care to someone who has chosen to spend their last days in familier surroundings, at home with their family and pets.

It could help us be there for families
Helping them come to terms with the loss of their loved one at our bereavement group meetings or our special Dovetail Group for children.

How else it could help
Your pledge could also help us provide complimentary services such as our Compassionate Neighbours programme, our Wellbeing Centre, Therapies, and even contribute to our ongoing Education and Research programmes.

When you choose to remember Princess Alice Hospice in your Will, we promise to honour your legacy and reflect your values. Your gift will help ensure compassionate care continues for local people long into the future.

Our supporters are very important to us. We appreciate your generosity and never take it for granted. You don’t need to tell us how much you’re planning to leave, and a gift of any size will make a difference. When writing a Will, we understand that those closest to you come first. We promise that whatever support you can give, it will make a difference, helping us continue to provide compassionate care in your community.

“As the care Kathleen received from the Hospice at home was so excellent, I have decided to leave a gift to the Hospice in my Will. This was very easy to do. I had to redo my Will after Kathleen died and told the solicitor what I wanted. We were both so grateful for the support we received from the Hospice that this was a very easy decision for me to make.”

Trevor and his daughter Rosemary now run a monthly general knowledge quiz for fellow residents of his sheltered accomodation, with Trevor writing the questions and Rosemary organising everything from prizes to administration. They charge £2 to take part and donate all the proceeds to Princess Alice Hospice, raising over £1,300 so far.

Alain Bakas

We will never be able to thank the team at Princess Alice Hospice enough for the love, care, dignity, and compassion they showed our papa and our whole family. They cared for my papa for a month, and then welcomed him back again for his final 8 days before he passed on 3rd April 2026. Every single member of staff became like family to us during the hardest time of our lives. Their kindness, patience, support, and genuine compassion will stay in our hearts and minds forever. They not only cared for our papa with dignity and respect, but they also supported all of us emotionally every step of the way. We are so grateful for everything they did for our papa and for the comfort they brought him in his final days. Thank you again to the entire team for the incredible work you do every day. You are truly special people, and we will never forget you.

I'm deeply grateful for the exceptional care and support provided by Princess Alice Hospice in Esher. Their warm and helpful staff made a significant difference during a difficult time after losing my grandfather to prostate cancer in July 2017. The bereavement team and therapy offered were invaluable in helping me cope with the loss and navigate my grief. I'm thankful for their kindness and dedication. Massive shout out to Lynne my bereavement councillor who was incredible with me, I’ll never forget you.

My Mum was there for 3 weeks before she passed away in Nov . The staff and level of care was amazing, she was loved by the staff. They couldn't of done more for her. Myself and my sister were also supported. We donated a large memorial feather in our Mums memory. It's such a shame that most if their funding comes from donations.

So grateful for everything they did for dad and us. Just want to say a big thank you and keep up with all the hard work you all do.

Rosanna Stech

The call out night service team of Princess Alice were amazing with my Granny in her last few days. She was able to stay in her own home and have their amazing team look after her when we called them. I would like to especially say a big thank you to Camilla who was always so cheerful, professional and put us at ease when we really needed it. She would remember our family members names despite being called out to a number of houses every evening and was always a reassuring voice when she answered the phone. She made a real difference to my Granny’s end of life and I wouldn’t have wanted her to be under any other care. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
