Together, we can transform Martin House

Every pound donated and every brick laid, brings us closer to our goal: to transform the hospice for children with life-shortening conditions, and their families.

Join us and be part of something truly life-changing, as we embark on the biggest project in our history: THE BUILD. Help us raise £2 million so that we can be there for families today, and for families of the future.

Help us raise £2 million to transform Martin House

Since 1987, we’ve provided specialist palliative care for children with life-shortening conditions, and their families. Since then, advances in medicine mean that children and young people, with complex care needs, are living longer. Their needs are evolving and so must we.

With your support, no matter how big or small, our vision can become a reality. A reality which will transform not only the hospice, but the lives of over 500 children and families who rely on us.

How do we get there?

We've been working incredibly hard behind the scenes to secure over half of the funds required to complete THE BUILD.

We'd like to say a huge thanks to our headline sponsor HARIBO for kicking off this public phase of the appeal with a £200k donation. But we still have a way to go between now and the end of 2025, when we expect the project to be completed. Now more than ever, we need your help to reach the finish line by raising the last £2 million to bring THE BUILD to life.

Martin House is a lifeline for families across Yorkshire

THE BUILD will allow families in Yorkshire to continue to use the hospice free of charge, in a building which matches the high-level of care we already provide. For the support they need, whenever they need it, for many more years to come.

Fundraise for THE BUILD

The plans to transform Martin House have been created in collaboration with the families using our hospice, ensuring their needs are at the centre of THE BUILD.

Do it for them. Put the fun in fundraising and gift families in need, the hospice they've dreamt up. Sign up to one of our organised challenge events or fundraise your own way.

If Thomas is unwell, you go to Martin House, and it's a much more comforting environment - warm, and friendly, and loving. Even when he's poorly, he's going to get better quicker or going to be feeling happier in that environment. And we're less stressed at Martin House because we've got that extra support.

THE BUILD lead gift

THE BUILD has been made possible thanks to the generosity of The Liz and Terry Bramall Foundation, who donated a £3 million lead gift, allowing us to kick-start the project.

"The support Martin House provides to countless families living with challenges most of us cannot imagine, is quite exceptional. The Foundation is in existence to support a broad range of worthy causes in Yorkshire. There is none more worthy than Martin House."

With thanks to THE BUILD funders

If your foundation would like to help build a hospice fit for the future, we'd love to hear from you.
