Donations are our lifeline

Support Tapping House and make a difference today.

Services provided by Tapping House cost over £5.7 million a year to run, with less than a third of that funded by the NHS.

We rely on the kindness and generosity of people just like you to fund the majority of this cost.

Every donation, no matter the size, brings hope and comfort to those who need it most. Together, we can make sure that no one in our community faces their final moments without the care, compassion, and dignity they deserve. 

Each year we care for around 1,500 patients at the end of their lives and support 3,000 patient families to find their way after losing someone important to them. Your donation really does matter as every single penny donated helps us provide exceptional care services to individuals and families during some of life’s most challenging times.
